    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.

    FW with male brand in space 1b
    FW spot 2 & 3 separated.

    Probably Thoressa fusca.

    T. gupta FW cellspot faint or absent.

    Thoressa aina. HW cilia unmarked.
