Here are some in that lighter colored group that I've been working. I'm 
wondering how they fit into this discussion. P. sepia looks close but as always 
with micros, there seem to be differences between the few photos online and the 
ones I have pics of.

Jean,
 
Your moth and a similar one that both Paul and I have been discussing does look 
similar to P. sepia; the distinctive brown tones seem to separate this species 
from the other members of this confusing genus.  Maybe others will have an 
opinion but I certainly think sepia is a possibility at this juncture.
