My specimen is possibly missing the large spot on the hind wing and the two spots on the collar.
The hind wings are folded but I would think something of the large dots would be showing, same for the collar spots where the antennae cross over where they should be.

I don't think Philobota brachypterous should have "female" in the name especially since two male moths sightings are under this species.

Roughly coincides with the photo for a F. phricotypa female:-
https://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/dipt/phricotypa.html
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.
