While I see a strong similarity to P. leucomitra as ID'd on CNM (two live samples only on ALA from CNM) this moth does not seem to have a well defined 'collar' and the dots marking on the forewing are finer and more diffuse here than the examples we have. so far. So I now agree its probably Palimmeces (genus), but I'm not sure.
