This is a Phycitinae, possibly genus Emmalocera or Heosphora, although the candidate species that I have seen all have a broad light costa that does not appear in this photo.

Emmalocera (Enosima) leucotaeniella (Ragonot, 1888) appears to be a tropical species. The photos in

do not look much like those of 4370501.

This species does not appear on Bold Systems, ALA or iNaturalist apparently so I have no similarly labelled image except Google generated images to compare this suggestion with.

Yes, I was right off course there. I saw an example of a subdued light costa and jumped the wrong way. Will delete the suggestion.

I overlooked Lioprosopa genus, which has some moths akin to Emmalocera and Heosphora. The record may well be Lioprosopa rhodbaphella itself, but I'm not aware of any southern records.
