I am not sure why a search for M. niphodes draws a blank on the now updated AFD which is now back online.
This sighting apparently matches M. niphodes on the ALA which appears as a species shown wirhin the ANOMOLOGINAE (ARISTOTELIINAE) (ARISTOTELIA GROUP) described a Twirler Moth.':-
https://biocache.ala.org.au/occurrences/70fd633f-4031-4e22-bd15-88b453baaec1
https://bie.ala.org.au/species/https://biodiversity.org.au/afd/taxa/01e50b72-3bda-485c-a98f-9e588bec50e0
within Gelechioidae (Gelechiidae). The ALA cites the AFD as thr authority for this grouping.

I also find this a constraint to my role as a location monitor. I have used the map search functions in many ways including in compiling the annual update to the Mount Majura / Mount Ainslie Flora listing, where there are boundary differences between Mt M and Mt A as defined in CNM and as they were historically defined in the original flora surveys. Without this type of search on CNM, I suspect we will be forced to amalgamate the Mt M and Mt A lists into one (which may not be a bad outcome).
I have also used the species maps to compile a list of rare and endangered species in the 60 Ha wider Fair area - this was included in The Fair Mount Majura Nature Reserve Weed Management Plan 2024-29 https://majura.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/The-Fair-Weed-Mangement-Plan-2024-29_final.pdf
Its fine to do the targeted version of map search for the Land Libraries etc, by don't forget moderators need to do targeted searches as well. And we don't get access to these Land Libraries etc ...
