I'm looking for this color of a tilt in latch for a replacement.

Thanks for posting. At first glance this tilt latch reminds me a lot of our 26-456, but this latch has a very peculiar locking tooth which you can see below. Compare the dimensions and design below to your old latch. If anything differs, including the shape of that locking tooth, please describe how and send extra photos.

This latch has a triangle shaped catch

Thanks for getting back to me. Now, are the dimensions the same as the diagram above? That is to say, does your old latch have 2" hole spacing (center-to-center), and is the hole closest to the window track 3/4" away from the front edge of the latch body? If so, take a look at our 26-344. This has a different shape than your old latch, but it has the same hole spacing and backset that I just described. It might work as a substitute. Take a look and see what you think.

Yessir. 2" hole spacing. Do you have a pair in the tan color?

I'm afraid not. The 26-344 is currently only available in white.
