Here's an excellent moth from my backlog that I just uploaded to #iNaturalist

It's the Purerehua, or South Island Lichen Moth, *Ipana egregia*. It's a large NZ endemic moth restricted to the South Island that blends in well with lichens on rocks.

This is the moth also seen on the NZ hundred dollar note.
