I don't think it is Epicyrtica docima for a number of reasons - the way it was resting, markings on top and hind wings and underneath. My thought when I saw it was something like Rhuma subaurata or Corgatha pleuroplaca (wrong location). Bigger than Thallarcha I have seen and I can't find one with markings to match.
