On a second thpughts. I agree this is not. M. ursina, but I'm not sure it is E postvittana either notwithstanding E. postvittana is apparently highly variable in appeareance This moth is very broad across the forewings and seems to have markiings at the base of the forewing which M. postvittana lacks. A different species in the Epiphyas (genus)?
