This one is quite worn and damaged. MoVic Pt3 says it can be separated from Epicyme rubipunctaria by "paired dots on thorax (largely worn away here) and abdomen. The scalloped edge of the termen on both wings is emphasised by a fine black border." I think my flash flare is also exaggerating the worn areas. I have attached another shot of it even more bleached out.
