Moved

This is not Loxostegopsis cur
This is not Loxostegopsis curialis rather it is an undescribed Loxostegopsis species
Loxostegopsis curialis has white labial palpi a white head and only a few basal antennal segments are white. The undescribed species has white labial palpi and the all the antennal segments are white while the head is brown .

 
Looks like mine
Found one month earlier in Madera Canyon. Matched this up with Jim Vargo's image at MPG and then noticed this one in the unplaced Loxostegopsis images here at BugGuide.
