I'm not as sure as I was with Sighting No. 4368813 that the side view of the forewing pattern matches pattern shown by the Bold Systems 4 set specimens. There is some similarity with LBH's Oenochroa A photo. Looks like two different individusls were photographed here.

The Oenochroa species most often recorded in the ACT is an undescribed one that is rather like Oenochroa lactella, but with a lighter orange/yellow hindwing. This may be one of it (or two as Ian suggested), based on both the forewing pattern in the first two photos and the partial view of the hindwing in the last two.
