Wrong texture of the scales for A. Affinalatis and I haven't ever seen one with the 3 black spots per wing.

There are quite a few examples of plain, pale looking A. affinatalis with three spots in similar positions to these, but admittedly these spots are more sharply defined than the more diffuse spots usually seen.
