I think the wing shape is wrong for Periallactis monostropha. I am not fully convinced about Aristotelia centrosema, which is quite small, but the wing shape fits better https://inaturalist.ala.org.au/observations/330198704

Agreed, but this moth does not seem to have the same white 'eyebrow' or the same terminal shape and markings of the forewing or be elongate like A. centrosema.

I have added a rather fuzzy photo of the same moth on a different plant in case it helps for the wing shape.
