DR095 Hypsopygia or Orthopygia sp?

DR095 Hypsopygia or Orthopygia sp?
Pyralidae - Wingspan: 19mm.

There seems to be some confusion as to the Genus, but consensus on synonyms is that the first above is now accepted. No confirmable species has been found which matches this insect above, but my guess is that it is possibly of one or other of this Genus. A single dead specimen was found in the hollow of one of the UV lamps of the light trap.
