The general appearance from above is rectilinear. Not the forelegs that go out at right angles.

Do ardozyga have red eyes? Some similarities with Ardozyga furcifera but not quite the same markings from what I can see from these photos.

I think the red eyes are a lighting artefact. The streaky wings are like several Ardozyga species eg A. phloeodes, A. odorifera, A. sisyraea.
