This species appears to be confined to the east coast of SA. It extends from Lake Sibaya in the north to Wilderness in the south. It inhabits coastal bush, and is extremely cryptic when resting on branches and twigs. Also attracted to light. The blackish grey larvae inhabit sandy areas, often on the fringes of coastal dune vegetation. |
