Thanks Ian - this one was much lighter than that one so I was wondering if it was the something different. I remember a similar one here recently but I couldn't find it so was hoping someone else might remember it.

Two dots on the forewing, although faint, seem to be in the! right spot. I didn'r remember it!
A New species for NatureMapr's Canberra and Southern Tablelands region when confirmed. Nice photo. Also recorded for NatureMapr's South Barwon region. Nice photo,
