Antenna Problem ?
Protogygia have Filiform Antennae. The pectinate antennae of this moth together with the visible wing venation suggest Spilosoma or some other Arctiid. Any color in the forelegs?

Looks Like It
I have a difficult time (I guess most of us do) with white moths. It's such a bother to have to poke around, under and inside them :-)
