Mahathala ameria - confirmation of ID

[DaveChiangMai]

I photographed this some years ago at Chiang Dao, n Thailand. At the time it was put down as Mahathala america.
I think that still looks OK, but could this be confirmed please.
A scarce species in Thailand. Many thanks

The HW margin is rounded & there are tornal green scales.
