I am unclear what the diagnostic differences are between C. filata and P. testulata. ?

The shape of the hindwing outer margin helps identify C. filata.

OK, I agree Epicyrtica (genus) 'fits the lines'' better. but I suggest there are other species in that genus that might fit equally well, if we accept this is a faded specimen. For example:
Epicyrtica docima (already in the NatureMapr taxonomy for SouthCoast region, with no sightings):-
https://bie.ala.org.au/species/https://biodiversity.org.au/afd/taxa/a958ac19-22da-4077-a3b5-788aff3b4e32
On that basis I suggest 'Epicyrtica (genus)'

Epicyrtica hippolopha
