Are you sure this is a Macaria?

 
Hi Tony
Gosh, I think so. Seems to be the same species which CBIF and John Davis refer to as M. signaria. You are the expert thus what is your opinion on this moth. I'm just learning. Thanks.

 
NB
is a long way from Washington State; I'm not familiar with your fauna.
This moth looks identical to our eastern Ectropis crepuscularia and nothing like any Macaria

 
Thanks,
I should have looked back sooner at my own specimens of E. crepuscularia which are less worn. Just got into a hurry. Appreciate the heads up.
