however there no row of four? dots 1/3 from base of forewing (as in this sighting) in the LBH photo as there are for F. bradymorpha on Bold Hobern.
https://bold-au.hobern.net/specimens.php?taxid=375579
Also the Bold Hobern specimeba for P. phricotypa don;t show outer forewing dots as for this sighting, see above, rather a zizg pattern of a diffuse faint line.
This suggests to me this sighting may be F. bradymorpha or some other Fisera spp.
Unverified Geometer moth (Geometridae)
Dasyatidae (family)
For example, if we go to iNaturalist page you cite above which iare sightings classified as C. melenaleuca ie.:-
https://inaturalist.ala.org.au/observations?verifiable=true&taxon_id=701043&place_id=6744&preferred_place_id=6744
to my eye there looks to be a sighting amongst them which to my eye is likely C. comparella ie.
https://inaturalist.ala.org.au/observations/257422504
amongst the majority which are most likely C. melenaleuca eg.
