4260562 is M. villosata, but I think the other two records that we have under that species are M. squamulata, of which CNM has other records. This looks like another M. squamulata.

The shape of the pale submedial forewing line of M. squamulata near the costa seems more stepped towards the base than that of M. villosata, so I agree that this is M. squamulata.
