Do not think it is Orthaga thyrisalis, though variable, the examples on BOLD with a “mid white stripe” have it turning towards the base at the costa while in this specimen the “mid white stripe” turns away from the base at the costa.

I think the shown distribution of this species matches on the ALA matches where this species was recorded.
