I agree the moth is most likely a species in the Aenetus (genus). Going by the pattern of black markings along the costa and the known northern tropical and sub-tropical distrution of the species, I think it unlkely to be A. mirablis. There a reseveral other Aenutus (genus) with known sothern distributions eg. A. eximia and A .blackburni are examples.

Yes, three different individuals, all Oxycanus genus I think. When you know the photos are different individuals it is recommended not to load different individuals in the same observation if you can. With Oxycanus genus its best to try to get the antennae in sharp focus to help with identification to the species level. I would suggest you reload the first two photos as one observation. the second two as the third observation and the fifth photo (antennae arwe in better focus) as the third observatlion.
