  1. Brunia looks close but it seems wider and the outer bands are thicker. My theory would be Palaeosia bicosta, give it a thought. Posted 2 years ago

    2. Scoliacma nana might also be an option. Your moth doesn't seem to have the 2 colors (dark orange and white) that run along the costa like Palaeosia bicosta has.
