Fisera phricotypa or close to this species varies a bit from MoV description

Could this be F. bradymorpha ? It has the dark line down the thorax, 2 rows of dark dots on forewings plus pale dark spot. Some BOLD specimens have a bit of a hook on the wing tip.

Some specimens (with 2 dot rows) on iNat are fawn or pale colour

Roughly coincides with the photo for a F. phricotypa female:-
https://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/dipt/phricotypa.html
however there no row of four? dots 1/3 from base of forewing (as in this sighting) in the LBH photo as there are for F. bradymorpha on Bold Hobern.
https://bold-au.hobern.net/specimens.php?taxid=375579
Also the Bold Hobern specimens for P. phricotypa don't show outer forewing dots as for this sighting, see above, rather a ziig zag pattern or a diffuse faint line.
This suggests to me this sighting may be F. bradymorpha or some other Fisera spp.
