@Tapirlord understandable. However I am still sceptical of its natural occurrence within the ACT specifically.

P. hypocausta - the BOLD (hobern) and 'Research Grade' specimens on iNat have a dark thorax. In the discussion on one of these iNat specimens ( https://inaturalist.ala.org.au/observations/140047502 ) Peter McQuillan says " A good match for Meyrick's original description. The type locality is Adelaide. The images for hypocausta in the Atlas of Living Australia are not this species. https://archive.org/details/proceedingsoflin0108linn/page/481/mode/1up?view=theater&q=hypocausta"
This description says " Thorax deep yellow, (my caps) ANTERIOR HALF, OR SOMETIMES WHOLLY, SUFFUSED WITH DARK FUSCOUS." (my caps)
Sadly P. protecta is not described in this archive document.

Philobota (genus)
