I am not clear how this can be identified from an underside photo as so few Pterophoridae underside photos are available for comparison.

Thank you, donhe, but... tricky! I usually try to capture images of top, side and bottom but there was no chance to get under the moth to see the top side. I will keep an eye out for any such opportunities but I am not optimistic. This individual was flighty, if you will pardon the pun.
