There is a similar looking brownish-yellow moth suggested as P. habrophanes on iNaturalist:
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/107910469 .
And also on the ALA, see here:

P. hapbrophanes quite vatiable in the ammount of white vs dark markings. Thsi moth seemms to lacs a distinct v-shaped 'collar' as seen on other examples pf P. habrophanes.
