Pollanisus apicalis is a moth of the family Zygaenidae. It is found in the eastern part of Australia (Queensland, New South Wales, Australian Capital Territory, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania).[1]
The larvae feed on Hibbertia obtusifolia and Hibbertia virgata. Adult moths are day flying, and can be found feeding during the hottest hours of the day.[1] Mating takes place in the afternoon and lasts until the following morning, and following this the female lays eggs on the host plant.[1]
