Edosa purella is also a far northern species and only has a very narrow yellow stripe on the wings.

E. talantias is more south than it according to BOLD (Hobern)
https://bold-au.hobern.net/specimens.php?taxid=326713
iNat only has E. talantias for southern 1/2 of Australia

On the ALA the distribution of E talantias is SE inland NSW with one record on the NSW north coast.
This record is from Victoria. I would have thought E. tyrannica would also be a candidate,
