The green colour made Chloroclystis catasticta tempting, but I think its a female Phrissogonus laticostata (usually grey).

It was much more grey than green to my eye - I didn't think green at all when I saw it. I was wearing a tshirt with a green pattern on it however so maybe some sort of reflection off me.
