I do not think the thorax, head and lack of a dark 'collar' fit A. alaeodes. If the antennae were sharply in focus and showed striations Garrha (genus) wiukd be likely.

I agree Euchaetis (genus) is likely given the strong dark dorsal streak at th thorax whiich several Euchaetis spp. show. Of those I can see on thr ALA with SE Queensland records ie E. iozona and E. crypsichroa, some examples of E. iozona seem to be the most similar.
