Possibly Lichenaula onychoptypa?

The broken outline of an elipse in the middle of the forewing suggests Palimmeces

Yes, it does, but I'm not convinced its either P. hemiphanes or P. leucomitra although both seem quite variable.

I would believe either "hempihanes or sp", or just the genus. The patterns are variable
