Orange with a curved mark on side of wings. Apologies if photo is not enough to i.d.

It does look like that moth but not with dots, has curved line on it. Not sure if that matters @donhe?

O. leptospila appears to be very variable. But it does seem consistently to have a dark line along part of the forewing costa, which this specimen does not have. So not that species.
