Zoran, many plume moths are known for their quite specific resting pose including specific wing position towards body and perch, wing fold angle and number of other elements. I can approximately say what's gender, not Emmelina anyway.

Sorry, I thought this is my image!

'doesn't rest like this'
To my experience, all moths which come to strong light source,
my 3600 Lumens lamp, for example, change their behavior and
subsequently, the resting pose.

Quite doubtful ID, Emmelina monodactyla doesn't rest like this. And please, don't give links to pics with such rest poses, genitalia examination only. :)
