Tridepia nova - Female

Lower Grapevine Canyon, Anza Borrego Desert , San Diego County, California, USA
March 9, 2023
Size: 14mm forewing
To B.L. Looks similar to MPG and Bugguide Images. Overall coloration, darkish distal cell area, pattern of lower subterminal line at inner margin of forewing, light purplish sheen hindwing. Not in the best condition, so I wasn't sure if it was worth submitting, but images by Steve Morris and Leslie G. gotten me thinking this was possibly Tridepia nova.
