Text on reverse of card reads:

The Golden Sun Moth is a medium-sized, day flying moth. In the female, the under-side of the forewing is dark grey with patterns of paler grey scales, and the hindwing is bright orange with black spots along the edges of the wings. In the male, the upper-side of the forewing is dark brown with patterns of pale grey scales and the hindwing is bronze/brown with dark brown patches. The golden sun moth is synonymous with Austrodanthonia species of grasses and is almost confined to grasslands which are home to these grass species. Found in Victoria, ACT and a small area of NSW, this species is listed as critically endangered.
