Ornithospila avicularia MON pl 4/10.
Sondhi, Y. & S. Sondhi (2016). A partial checklist of moths (Lepidoptera) of Dehradun, Mussoorie and Devalsari in Garhwal, Uttarakhand, India. Journal of Threatened Taxa 8(5): 8756–8776; http://dx.doi.org/10.11609/jott.2814.8.5.8756-8776.
Similar species: O. submontrans
From images of submontrans and avicularia, I can see the following difference:
avicularia: has double medial spots on FW and basal spot; cilia red on both wings
submontrans: single medial spot on FW; cilia white tipped on both wings and red marginal line. Lacks basal spot.
