wings mustard behind head, then white/shiny band across wings, then darker brown wing section with black spots with highlights, then another pale/spangly band
https://bold-au.hobern.net/specimen.php?processid=ANICF623-10 shows striped abdomen. Some Glyphips have a striped abdomen but it is longer and thinner to my eye.
I think the fawn thing in foreground is a flower or some other plant debris

What about the apparent long antenna? The moth in the foreground? Does T. micalis have a trailing forewing edge like that?
