Looking at the ID of the 2 moths from the original record I had a bit of a pause wondering if the above moth could be another version of Stictochila myriospila, but I don't think it is. The larger marking on Stictochila myriospila is irregularly shaped, while in E. atmospila it is a round spot. Two dots adjacent to the round spot are so close they form a dash (which is not found on S. myriospila). Also S. myriospila has 2 rows of dots parallel to the termen, E. atmospila has one.

S. myriospila
https://inaturalist.ala.org.au/observations?verifiable=true&taxon_id=704269&place_id=6744&preferred_place_id=6744
and my mind goes to - what does myriospila mean V atmospila in (old) greek/latin or whatever

Hi John. The photos are not as clear as your usual ones. I can confirm it as Sericulus chrysocephalus based on your respected expertise if you wish.
Ptilonorhynchus violaceus
