I looked at Hypomecis lioptilaria, but it seems to not be a match. Hypomecis lioptilaria on the hindwing has "eyespots" that are not connected to a zigzag striping. This specimen above seems to have the hindwing "eyespots" connected to the zigzag striping. Also this specimen above has two zigzag stripes on the hindwing, while Hypomecis lioptilaria has three stripes. I would keep it unidentified for now until someone has a better Identification that matches.
