Thanks Libby, I could not recognize it from this picture. Learning from you!

I've seen a few of them now. The markings are quite variable. You can't see the AM & PM lines in this one unfortunately, but the bright white hindwings and the reddish/brown blush around the reniform are two of the indicators...
