Pollanisus species are difficult to separate, especially when only a photo is available. The larger blue-green specimens observed in the ACT are usually P. viridipulverulenta. Smaller specimens with narrower wings are likely to be P. apicalis. Those with a bronze collar are similar to P. subdolosa which is common coastally. The larvae of most Pollanisus species feed on Hibbertia.
Pollanisus viridipulverulenta is listed in the following regions:
Canberra & Southern Tablelands | Southern Highlands | Greater Sydney | Grampians
