Lovely images & sighting Kylie. You actually have 2 species of Glyphipterix in these photos. The moth in your 1st photo is indeed G. chrysoplanetis. It is also the middle moth in 2nd photo (yellow big marks) but the others are another species. Please create another record using the 3rd shot above as the primary shot plus 2nd and 4th. Delete 3rd & 4th images from this record.
Glysphipterix chrysoplanetis.

On second thoughts, the thoracic shield does look like that of Doratifera oxleyi, which does have variable colours. I am thinking now that this is D oxleyi.
