Looks like it might be a species of Ceranemota in the Drepanidae, but I don't know which species. See here.

Thanks
Thanks, John. Never thought to look in Drepanidae.

CBIF lists three species of Ceranemota in Canada - albertae, improvisa & fasciata. One of the latter two looks most likely. Will leave it at species for now. Appreciate the help - spent hours on this one looking in all the wrong places!
