I would guess Arctiidae. Not the best picture, but maybe possible still... I hope.

Could also be Aganaidae. But the antennae are more likely to place it in Arctiidae. |

Hypsidae (Aganaidae) is an Old World group, I think it's some Arctiinae (a lot to choose from in genera with similar patterns: Ordishia, Amphelarctia, Glaucostola, Apyre, Ormetica) but maybe Notodontidae/Dioptinae (no good match in recent revision by Miller, though)
While others can't climb, using infinite pains, I, gravity turning to jest, Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes, Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best. |
