Thought Loweria or Amelora, but haven't found a match.

Does E. conspicua really vary that much? The first jagged boudary liine acroos the forewing is very different to the E. inconspicua I see on line.

Yes, it's not Eublemma. I think it's an Erebidae.

No match found in Acontiinae which seems most likely.
