Moth - Epirrita autumnata

Think this might be an autumnal moth (Epirrita undulata). If so, would be new Nov data point for WA.

Agree on Epirrita....
..but not sure on E. undulata.

E. autumnata is quite common in the Pacific Northwest. Have never seen undulata & I'm not sure whether the ranges overlap or how you would tell the two species apart visually. Maybe someone else can help - I would also be interested to know how to differentiate them!

Sorry again.
I got the common name right at least. Meant to put down autumnata :(
