Dissoloba caseicolor or maybe Olbonoma leptospila (Chezela Group) ?

Its quite a variable species, but the darker trailing edges of the forewing suggest Telocharacta eg. T, hemicroca :-

Also, the size and shape of the forewing markings suggest Mionolena euxantha, see
https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/1098122-Mionolena-euxantha
and also on Bold Systems:

However, the dark margins to the forewings do not seem obvious in the iNaturalist and Bold Systems photos of this species.
