thanks
folks.

Digrammia
Digrammia species, most likely Digrammia denticulata. See MPG plate for comparison photos.

 
6374 - Digrammia delectata looks closer ?
Thanks for being willing to spend the time searching out these difficult ones. It lead me to think this is quite likely D. delectata.

Possible
I actually considered delectata. But the strongly denticulated white line traveling down from the costa along the distal edge of the forewing, seemed more characteristic of denticulata. I could be wrong, but that was what led me towards denticulata verses delectata.
