Looked too big for a Nola, or at least the ones I usually find.
I was looking at this one for id https://bold-au.hobern.net/specimen.php?processid=ANICQ735-11

Having now had a look at LBH it says wing span 2cm for N. ceramota so I went and measured it - as it is resting it is 1.5cm between wing tips so spread not sure but I would guess a bit more than 2cm. But having now looked at LBH, it could be N. ceramota. Only one on iNat so obviously not a common one.

Turner says wingspan of his N. ceramota was 2.5-2.6 cms, although MOV says 2.2-2.3 .
