Thanks Paulk for doing as I suggested, but now I cannot see the first three images you posted. They should appear in the Unidentified Moths listins until confirmed by another moderatot I think. You may have to submit them again.

Is this an underside? Is it the same specimen as in another CNM sighting?

Underside, was asked to put it up separately as unlikely to be same as other moths in the sighting.

Thanks Paul, Sorry for that. But I now see this is also likely to be Dichromodes ainara after all, given many Dichromodes are plain brown on the underside, and it matches with this previously identified sighting No. 4403404!
