The dark dot on the 'shoulder' (costa near base) suggests E. ashworthana to me https://bold-au.hobern.net/specimens.php?taxid=270950 https://inaturalist.ala.org.au/observations?place_id=6744&quality_grade=research&taxon_id=471465

OK, on second thoughts, I agree, there is a straight boundary across, rather than a 'vee' pattern on the forewings.
