The markings suggest Cruria kochii, but that is a tropical species.

Well, looks like I got that one wrong. Unfortunately I could not get any additional angles.

Very worn, Could explain it being well out of range! Unusual sighting I expect.

Con, its now apparent that the size of the triangular mark on the forewing is likely within the variation in size apparently reported for visual sightingidentified as C. donawani overall, so its unlikely to be C. kochii - although the triangular mark is very large in this photo!

I did try to get closer for some variation in the angles of the images but it was not having any of that.

The absence of a pale line on the forewing from the base to the cell shows it is not C. synopla
