I did see this Malcolm when researching this moth.
We have two species here U.pulchelloides and U.lotrix, and as a result of your post I decided to have a closer look.
They are very common here at this time of year and visit my blacklight every night
I collected 20.
U.pulchelloides were a little more common.But U.lotrix were present.
There is a good Ident article in Hong Kong Moths.

Very closely related to this http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/115... which is quite common over here.
