I think the forewing submarginal zigzag line suggests M. toxophire/picroptila

@Hejor1 : hope you can rear it to an adult moth to verify the ID ?

I believe this is the first sighting of this moth species on NatureMapr and for NatureMapr's Brisbane region however the species has been previously listed for NatureMapr's South Coast region without any verified sightings to date (28/7/2025).
