Hi Guys,
found an ID for the plume moth, Alucita phricodes. Thanks for posting the picture. Last night had this visitor come into the house, a lacewing that mimics a moth, Psychopsis mimica. Hope you like it.

Wow Trevor,
That is one awesome looking Lacewing. I am linking to another image of Psychopsis mimica, but there is no information on this unusual Lacewing on the page.
I like This
Is it possible that this type of moth could be in South Australia? We have one in the house here which is very similar to your photo.
i know it’s 4 years late but in case anyone else happens to wonder the same thing, this actually isn’t a species of moth. it’s a species of lacewing that has looks very much like a moth.
