I believe this is Hybotidae. Can anyone suggest a subfamily or genus? Light trap, Townsville, Queensland. Graeme Cocks attached the following image: [50.13Kb] |

Tachydromiinae, in the branch of the subfamily with Drapetis rather than Tachydromia. The other subfamilies have more complicated wing veins. Hybotinae are distinctly humpbacked; that appearance is the source of the genus name Hybos. |
