Very like a paler version of Donald Hobern's sighting of Acropolitis excelsa at http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/tort/excelsa.html

Looking at Acropolitis genus on the the ALA, I agree this specimen does look similar. However given the variation apparent within and between species I'm not sure of the species.
