I cannot see the forewing costa clearly. Did it have a dark line along the forewing costa?

Hi Don. Yes, there is a very fine dark line along the edge. I have added another photo that I hope shows it more clearly

I'm not sure the anterior line of dots are positioned correctly to comply with H. coppatias. They are in line sloped the wrong way to my eye.

Glenn Cocking recalls this moth, concurs with Gelechioidae superfamily, but cannot recall the details as yet.
