I am afraid you can't assumed two images taken 2 years apart be the same species.
I can't remember what was discussed last but it is best to ignore it since neither one can be Onryza maga.

The wingshape isthat of Pedesta. The 3 subapical spots are in a straight line.
The antenna tip dark orange.
Probably Pedesta panda.
The two similar species are much confused.
P. panda commomner ;FW spot 2 close to cellspot , while spot 3 is far from it.
UnH more ochreous.

P. pandita rarer; FW spot 2 & 3 overlapping, & both far from the cellspot.

Onryza has a different wingshape.
O. maga UnH is marked with black spots ,while O. siamica & meiktila have UnH unmarked ochreous in DSF.
