Eudryas grata can be distinguished from Eudryas unio from the marking on the outside of the forewing. The brown marking is smooth in Eudryas grata, and scalloped in Eudryas unio. I hope this makes sense to you, as I cant quite tell from the angles of the photos, yet you may be able to recall. Please confirm the ID by looking the two links I have provided here:
