Same as Sighting No. 4427680 which I think matches A. acroleuca, (Bold Systems 4).

It would be great if it was Ardozyga acroleuca. I can't find any live photos of this species. It is also the same as sightings 4412650 and 4367002.

BOLD has a photo of a pinned specimen in natural posture, see http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/gele/acroleuca.html
The shape of the distal boundary of the forewing postmedial pale spot is a very good match.
