Similar, but A. inostentata seems to invariably appear as a light grey coloured moth overall. This moth lasks the palps of that species also. I also think the diagonal mark on the forewing is a different shape.

I think Tolpia has a more rounded forewing costa than this specimen.

Mm, perhaps, but on that evidence I suggest most Paramelora (genus) species seem to have a much more wavy pattern across the forewing. A problem is the apparent 'worn' nature of this specimen.
