Dot pattern on Bold Systems would appear to fit A. lacteola and it would appear it is known to occur in SE Australa : http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Public_SearchTerms?query=Ataleida[tax] Can't find any other live specimen photos online to compare it with.

While I can see the resemblance, I don't think the correspondence of the dots on the fw is sufficient to make a safe identification.
