Thanks, @bayucca & @Chun for the correcting the ID :)

I agree with Bayucca, looks more like a Caeneressa sp.
bayucca
Not Amata nigriceps andnot Amata sp., from the same tribe, but yours is most probably a Caeneressa sp.. http://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-6/syntominae/syntominae-5-6.php http://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-6/syntominae/syntominae-5-7.php I don't think it is an Auriculoceryx sp. https://www.flickr.com/photos/artour_a/364488257/ http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/TaxBrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=475324 http://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-6/syntominae/gallery.php If Chun or Nuwan do not have a better IDea I would take Syntomini as scientific name (as part of Erebidae, Arctiinae).
