Thanks bayucca for the lead, and Nuwan for the ID and ref. But this spotting has a pair of translucent areas appering like swimming goggles at the bases of fore-wings, whereas none of the specimens in the BOLD System, and even earlier postings of mine and Jatishwor's Corymica sp. have such areas. Further, this spotting has its fore-wings tilting at an angle of about 30 degrees to the ground, and separated from the hind wings. Pl note.

Looks like Geometridae? Sterrhinae???
