My thoughts ...
Both have broad white HW fringe, 4 small white spots near FW coastal margin and one larger white spot farther up. The difference is your one remaining spot, near the middle of FW. Where your duskywing has only one large spot, Funeral has two large ones. Since you can see a second, smaller spot on some Mournfuls, I'll defer a definitive answer to David.
