Assuming you have noother photos showing hindwings I'm not sure we can be definitive on species. On second thoughta I'm not suee I see markings with either species suggested, although I stand open to be corrected.

WendyEM, Moths of Victoria v8 states formosalis can be distinguished by its brown eyes. I take this specimen to have black eyes. See Phytometra laevis page 2/2 on the disk

The evidence from Bold Systems 4 and https://bold-au.hobern.net/ suggests that C. tanaoptera is a species found in Tasmania. see here:-
https://v4.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?searchMenu=taxonomy&query=Carposina+tanaoptera&taxon=Carposina+tanaoptera
https://bold-au.hobern.net/specimens.php?taxid=323840
While this does not categorically rule out C. tanaoptera also occuring on the mainlaind, I think a site record alone (for example) it is quite difficult to distinguish C. tanaoptera from C. taractis (for example), or C. latebrosa - both species which Bold Systems 4 says occurs both in Tasmania and the mainland.
