Thank you. Lori and Merrill. My shot was at an odd angle, so the moth looks
shorter than it was.

Jean, I attached a photo of mine that I've labeled as Dysodia oculatana
(#06078 Eyed Dysodia Moth); they look quite similar except that the abdomen
looks longer in my photo than it does in yours--perhaps that is a qualifying
identifier? The only photo they have of granulata on BugGuide is not a great
shot--making it almost impossible (especially without any info on the info
pages) to tell them apart.

This moth came to porch light in east TN yesterday.
I don't know if this is Dysodia granulata or oculatana. I find very few
references to either one. I see Merrill has pic on Bug Guide.
Any ideas?
