Is "Hybrid Moyseii" really the right category for this rose?

Yes, if it was really derived from Rosa moyesii. There is some speculation that the pollen parent was a different rose (e.g. Rosa spinosissima hispida), but never conclusive proof.

Nevada produces mostly smaller light pink blooms during the warmer months in my zone 9b Med climate while during the cooler months it produces its signature large white blooms.

Patricia, interesting new references on the doubtful moyesii-parentage of Nevada! This is one issue which might be clarified with a DNA study (Bristol, Lyon?)

Yes. R. spinosissima hispida, R. Moyesii fargesii, and R. holodonta, all 28 chromosomes (tetraploid), seem to be the main contenders.
The 1950 reference tells me Pedro's son, Marino did the "automatic" hybridizing and it would be interesting to know if the Dot garden had any of the three roses mentioned above. I'll add a drawing of the Dot "automatic" hybridizing later.
Later edit. Drawing added to Pedro Dot's page.

It is rather similar in growth to some of the Fruhlings series of roses.
