I'm not sure this is M. melanomitra compared to the BOLD (Hobern) evidemce given the labial palps are different, there seems to be much more white at the base of the forewing here, and the first white band seems more oblique with ragged edges.

I expect there are many more unknowns. Or variations of known ones not documented. This one is different than many as it has isolated white spots at wing base, they don't form a white band right across the 'shoulders'. This rules out many sp.
Macrobathra undescribed species No.1
