not Digrammia
I think this looks more like Macaria colata - or maybe decorata (see photos at CBIF).

I rotated your photo 90 degrees on my computer for better comparison. Note the 4 heavy dark marks along the costa, and the AM and median lines reaching completely across the forewing. Those features are lacking in Digrammia curvata.
