Its hard to be definitive from a single photo, because there ares several diffeerent species which could fit this dorsal view, but Edosa xystidophora is a possibility given the yellow/white head, the thorax edge pattern and the degree of slope of thr edge between the yellow and black on the forewing. Its better to try to get a side view of such moths to make identification easier.
