I would like to place this with Speranza lorquinaria, but the am and pm lines are just a bit different than the other photos, and as described in the info page. Comments are welcome. I will send this one to BOLD eventually.

Looks Like 6324 - Speranza lorquinaria
... agrees with MONA fascicle allowing variations in coloration. DNA results will be welcome. (no rsvp, thanks)
