Well spotted, WendyEM (Wendy Moore)! Wendy is cited along with M. Hewish as doscumenting this undescribed species for Part 9, 'Proteuxoa sp.(17) 'pages 1/2, 2/2 for the publication Moths of Victoria. On page 1/2 set specimens recorded by I.F.B Common at the Black Mt CSIRO light trap, 19 April 1956 and at Burnley 3 April 1969, collector unknown,, are illustrated.

Wendy, I do not think you would class it as alpine. Though I have not experienced it, snow may be a rarity. I have been there in frost at -5° and believe it may reach -10°
Nola paromoea

A new species For NatureMapre and NatureMapr's Canberra and Southern Tablelands region. An interesting, less commonly observed species described as primarily of Northern Australian distribution, but widespread, only occasiionally recorded in southern Australia. The Moths of Victoria authors speculated that perhaps this small species disperses south as a consequence of weather systems travelling from northern to southern Australia.
Paromphale caeca (Acronictinae)
