I am suggesting T. lignigerana because this moth has a clear dark coloured thorax which several of that species show and the rest of the forewing although variable is not incinsistent with that species. The ALA also shows this species has a distribution more common and coastal than A excelsa in Queensland. PS, donhe I am not sure how you were able to suggest A excelsa because I cannot see it in the Greater Brisbane taxonomy.

Ian, looks good for Thrincophora lignigerana (Walker, 1863)
