Oops. This is now a junior synonym of Ecpyrrhorrhoe rufipicta Butler, 1880, see

The AFD doesn't seem to recognise Ecpyrrhorrhoe rufipicta as a species yet, but iNaturalist does. The two photos there don't really match this photo.

Ian, I only found one image of a full adult in the article. Image 9 which is noted as a female and matches some of the images of Paliga rubicundalis on BOLD. Looks like sexual dimorphism making my image a male.
