NMW 2016 I posted this on the FB group site Mothing and Moth Watchers. Roger Kendrick made this comment.It is a member of the Nolidae, indeed the nominate subfamily (Nolinae) and tribe (Nolini). Placed in the genus Meganola, but species placement is not so straightforward; is either M. nitida or M. subnitida, probably the former, as subnitida was described from Indo-China and the Malay peninsula.
