Light brown apple moth? (forum)
2 responses
Chris starts with ...
Found this little critter burrowing in my rio red grapefruit. It made it's way into the flesh, but was isolated to a small wedge of the fruit. I'm thinking it is the larvae of the LBAM, but the colour doesn't seem to match my reference books.
Any thoughts?

Hi Chris,
This might be 'False Codling Moth'.
