Definite greenish colour and stronger markings.
A new species sighting for NatureMapr. Excellent photos. The Distribution of sightings shows a strongly coastal distribution from Northern coastal New South Wales to North Queensland.

Heteromicta poeodes

Hi MazzV, many species of Iridomyrmex are as you describe - large nests with thousands or tens of thousands of ants, and very happy to defend their space with plenty of bites (they don't have a sting - some ants have stings and some don't - Iridomyrmex don't). Cheers.

Iridomyrmex sp. (genus)

Looking at the uderside pattern on the Moths of Victoria Key to Geometrinae (page 7/7) and the topside wing pattern for the male I thought it better matched H. percomptaria, male.

Thank you! This one didn’t have a white stripe - you’re right it’s just the light reflection.
