As far as I can see: none of the unnamed BOLD Anthela specimens come from Tasmania.
17 named Anthela species have been found in Tasmania.

I've swapped a couple of the photos out, including one that I took later than the others, which might help with identification.

A. addita? - or a different Anthela species? Judging by the 3rd photo the emerged moth is a female. I must say I do not find the comparison of this sighting with the photo of th female on Lepidopters Butterfly House very supporting of the ID as A. addita here:- See
