While superficially matching Chezala privatella, the dots are larger in size and more diffuse than I've seen elsewhere for that species, and the four dots roughly 'in-line' across the two forewings appear to be oriented differently (ie. convex to the rear, rather than the opposite).

Looking at Bold Systems 4 there are a diversity of both named and un-named Australia Chezala (genus) species, several of which show larger and different dot patterns The ALA shows several un-named moths identified as Chezala (genus).
