Given the more scalloped appearance of its markings I'm wondering whether this may be C. hedylepta. Pity we cannot see the upper side of the hidwings.

I could be C. argocyma that we have several reports of.

I think the uniform height of the first 5 'bubbles' along the 2nd line is inconsistent with C. argocyma and C. hedylepta
