| Species: | Small Tabby (Etiella behrii)| This Photo: | 🔍Male, Antenna🔎 | Thank you Tony and Jenny Dominelli (Cinclosoma) for confirming the id of this species for us General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA), the Adelaide Hills, the Flinders Ranges and elsewhere We asked Matt Campbell how he differentiated from E. chrysoporella from E. behrii. He responded with "E. behrii has the white strip along the costa but doesn't have the other white markings on the wings. Lepidoptera Butterfly House suggests that the white stip along the costa is actually pale grey too."
