Notes (optional)
SS: See notes in Observation no 285970 for Collinsa acutalis (Walker, [1866]). I had this down as close to Collinsa acutalis Walker, [1866] or Rhodoneura fulvipicta (Warren).
JD : I do not think this is acutalis. The wing shape, the markings, the white mark near the FW apex, & the overall yellowish tone are not in line with acutalis / hamifera, but also not a completely clear match with fulvipicta - https://ia801306.us.archive.org/27/items/biostor-98886/biostor-98886.pdf
JD : The above reference for fulvipicta was to the OD of Rhodoneura fulvipicta, Hampson. However, the correct OD seems to be Pharambara fulvipicta, https://ia902302.us.archive.org/1/items/biostor-58201/biostor-58201.pdf. This is a much closer match to your observation. The apical white mark is broken into multiple spots & there are fulvous bands on the FW basal area with their edges marked with black spots on the veins
JR: Neither acutalis nor hamifera. Rhodoneura fulvipicta looks like a good match to me. Also look at Owada & Kobayashi (2020): Moths of Laos, Pl. 93, fig. 06
