I think Conoeca guildingi is likely. How big was it, eg compared with 4262546?

Longer, about 20mm

The general look of the specimen seems consistent with C. guidingi as seen on the ALA although the wing markings visible don't give much of a guide given the species is apparently so variable in the markings patterns it shows.

Yes, that's why size was the clincher. C. guildingi is usually bigger than Lepidoscia species.
