Hi!
Arctiidae doesn´t exist as a family anymore guys! I think you are right with the chosen family Erebiidae (which now contains Artiinae) but I would look into Lymantrinae subfamily. Just my opinion, I´ve not checked in depth, but it resembles a lymantrid to me.
Hope you good luck to get a ID!!
Regards,
Alejandro A.

We already knew Arctiinae was a subfamily of ''something'', little ago it went under Noctuidae, but now Noctuidae has been splitted in four families: Noctuidae, Nolidae, Erebiidae and Micronoctuidae, I haven´t the papers in front of me so I may be wrong with Micronoctuidae. Erebiidae contains the neat groups: Lymantrinae, Arctiinae, Catocalinae (yup, no longer Underwings should be listed under noctuids). Systematic list according with this new high taxonomy was already used for a checklist of American Noctuoidea (don´t remember the author´s name, year was 2007, not sure) but it has been Vazrick Nazari who, a couple of months ago, gave final evidence. Sorry about the blurry info, I don´t have time to check myself and I´m not a great fan of noctuids (although I love erebids, hahaha) Hope this get you in the right way, Dave.
