I certainly agree its most probably a Proteixoa (genus) species, but I''m unsure about it being P, ebenodes, a species which ís not included in Moths of Victoria (Part 9). BOLD shows P. ebenodes to be a WA species,.The ALA includes named specimens from both WA and western Victoria, but the two examples there look quite different and I think different too compared with this sighting.
