Crambid Moth

Pygospila tyres, Crambidae

Notes:

Not sure if there is enough here to identify this ?moth, but it was intent on hiding under the leaves so I couldn't get a clear photograph.

Oh thanks Sinobug. Pretty clever considering there was so little visible!

Definitely looks like a Crambid moth (family Crambidae) and based on the visible pattern and your location, I would reckon this is Pygospila tyres.
