Doesn't seem to fit anywhere in the Geometridae. Attracted to deck light.

Forgotten moth

I'd forgotten about this moth since posting. I have since identified it as Sterrhinae: Scopula junctaria - 7164 Simple Wave. I hope someone can confirm this.

ID

Actually, it's a Gueneria similaria. I didn't give an ID right away because it was part of a mass move where I grabbed dozens of moths to move out of the 'Moths' section, to family level. But I'll go ahead and move it to species page.
