Tough call
This is a tough genus. I think Apantesis phalerata is a good possibility, but we may want to look at Apantesis nais as another possible candidate. Any thoughts?

Apantesis phalerata?
Not sure on this....I usually get moths wrong, but it looks similar to this image of the Harnessed Tiger Moth.
