I think this looks somewhat similar to A. acroleuca, the first Ardozyga species listed on Bold Systems 4, which apparently has been sampled locally - even down to the shape and size of large white and orange forewing pane and the other more diagonal forewing marking. But i can;t find photos from lofe on line to comapare it with.
