Epithymema incomposita has a bold black and white pattern, but I think it is not that bold black and white pattern. None of the BOLD images of E. incomposita :
http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=408670
show 2 white triangles, one with a spot in the middle, the other with a spot on the costal and hind marginal stripes, like that
