JD : Not fulvofusa , the FW does not have fulvous suffusion in the basal anterior area.
Diathraustodes leucotrigona Hampson, 1896 is described from S. India, but there is no mention of the ante-medial & post-medial lines or fulvous abdomen. Besides the FW here is pretty dark. https://archive.org/details/moths04hamp/page/233/mode/1up

https://mhn-online-collections-assets-prd.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/emu/data/oumnh/multimedia/26/716/DI0251.jpg show a very damaged individual of Diathraustodes leucotrigona. No other images or illustrations that I can find. Does not match any of the other Diathraustodes species. Probably best left at genus level. Will create a page.
