I considered assimilis but MOV also mentioned red at both ends of the costa

Yes, but they also show a photo of the species (see page: 'Chlorocoma assimilis (TP.Lucas, 1888) group'3/3) which looks very close to this moth without any red on it at all. In the key for the group 'Yellow on fringe.' they say for the similar species C. melacrossa.'No red on costa' but they don.t rule our red on C assimilis in other photos of the species on pp, 2/1/qnd 2/2. But neither C. carenaria nor C. melacrossa have plain green wings.
