looks to me like Pantydia sp. (2) as per Moths of Victoria part 8

Given the way the sub-terminal white fw line runs straight from the costa, and also the form of the dark markings either side of it, I'd vote for the common Pantydia sparsa. But they are hard to separate.

Thanks, my judgement looking at supplementary pages of MOV was as above, so maybe or not... As you say its hard.
