Hypena madefactalis or sordidula? - Hypena

Hypena madefactalis or sordidula? - Hypena
Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana, USA
May 26, 2018
Found just before daybreak on the bright lit state capitol building in downtown Indianapolis. Moved this from H. madefactilis because I am concerned that it may actually be female H. sordidula. There is some darker shading between the AM and PM line, but for H. madefactilis the darker shading should probably be immediately adjacent to the PM line. Would appreciate a second opinion on this one.
