Could be a Pseudoscaptesyle circumdata (Zygaenidae; Chalcosiinae). http://www.jpmoth.org/~dmoth/Digital_Moths_of_Asia/60_ZYGAENOIDEA/Zygaenidae/47_1%20Chalcosiinae/48_Pseudoscaptesyle/Pseudoscaptesyle%20circumdata/Pseudoscaptesyle%20circumdata_941100213.jpg
Bayucca, Imma Moth or Immidae was also suggested in another forum, but we also did not find a match.
Lovely, looks like it has dipped its wings in tea!
Could be a Zygaenidae, Chalcosiinae? Although Erebidae, Arctiinae would also be a candidate, but I slightly would tend to Chalcosiinae.
