Looks Like 8085 - Lycomorpha fulgens...
... but 8080 - Ptychoglene phrada is similar. Both are in the Arctiidae and shown on This Plate at MPG

Thanks
8085 - Lycomorpha fulgens is closer to what I recall the wing pattern seen as opposed to the poor(er) photo angle.

Thanks for the help and for the reference.
