It does not have the dots on the forewing which are detailed in the description of nubila

Maybe C. nubila if the variations shown on iNat can be believed ?? Some show the coloured tinge, tufts on thorax, varous degrees of speckles across the forewing & dashes around apex and termen. They are not reinforced by BOLD (Hobern) specimens (which show interesting variations too). I've not checked description/details on Ian McMillan's Xylorictid site.

Yes agreed, but there are 567 specimens on BOLD4, none seem to match this! And its quite distinctive looking, nice photos.
