I see no online images with which to compare the side-on view of the mouthparts. The forewing markings appear to be quite vatiable.

Barea?

The posture looks like some of the Autostichidae.

Posture good fit, but palps look a bit small for P. peridela ?

Yes, I'm not convinced its P. peridela unless the species is sexually dimorphic. This specimen lacks the sub-terminal bands across the forewing.
