Not Myrascia (genus)I think.
This appears to the be at least the thirdssighting of this yet as identified species. See Sighting No. 3768837 and sighting 4549902

@AaronClausen : I tried adding Linosticha cyclophragma but NM complained it had it already, but a search on NM replied "No results found."

This moth species was incorrectly classified as Geometridae in the South Coast region with no current sightings. Thanks to michaelb's assistance I have now been able to add it successfully to Oecophoridae.
