I thought this was a common tan wave moth at first, then realized I was wrong. I now believe it's a Simple Wave.
edit: I thought that it couldn't be limboundata because I couldn't see the discal spots on the forewings. I didn't realize that junctaria lacks discal spots.

7159 – Scopula limboundata?
This looks like it may be the "enucleata" form of S. limboundata. Note the very wavy pm. line.
