Brown Scoopwing
Calledapteryx dryopterata. There's no mistaking this species. See here.

Cutwing ID
Thanks Stephen.

You're sure of this id? The placement of the "cut" in the wings (in the examples you submitted in the link) are similar in placement, but appear much different in shape and depth of the cut. Just checking.

Oops
Let me correct myself. This is actually the Gray Scoopwing (Callizzia amorata). The forewings are less angulate in this species, and the color is obvious. My bad.
