Cleora Looper Moth - Cleora illustraria

Family Geometridae

This page contains information about Cleora Looper Moths that we found in the Brisbane area, Queensland, Australia.

Wingspan 50mm
 
We found this moth rested on our windows in a late summer day. The larva is the typical looper caterpillar form. It is uniformly brown in colour with a smooth but wrinkled skin.
