The dark spot in the forewing cell is proximal to the fuzzy jagged dark medial line, so I think this may be Casbia coniodes rather than distal as in Casbia tanaoctena ?

If this is C. coniodes shouldn't there be a prominent white mark on the head between the base of the antennae?

Yes the brown head rules out C. coniodes.
