Found around the windows of our house, it’s legs were tangled in some old cobwebs. Untangled and released into a hedge. Included some photos focusing on the antennae.

Thanks for the detailed antennae shots. Looking at Moths of Victoria's visual key of magnified antennae of Oxycanus species and looking at your rd image photo magnified in Photoshop I thin\k the antennae correspond with a male O. australis.

To me, the rami look too short to be O. australis , but too long to be O. dirempta. So I dunno.
