Tetracis cachexiata

Tetracis cachexiata
Amherst, Hampshire County, Western Massachusetts County, Massachusetts, USA
June 1, 2009
Size: @2"
To my untrained eye, this resembles the Pale Beauty I posted last year. But the line seems a bit bolder, and there was a second fainter line on the Pale Beauty that is absent here. I tried finding this one and one other in my field guide. But it's tough making the visual leap from a spread-winged sample to just the forewing reveal, for me anyway. Found in a pine woods next to a swamp.
Thanks for any help with the ID.
