Ken,

 

Thanks for your reply. I tend to agree, but it's still closer than anything 
else I've been able to come up with. I have a feeling somebody is going to tell 
us what it really is.

There's a lot of variation on the European Corn Borers on the BugGuide page but 
there's a definite pattern and I don't see that pattern on the one in the 
attached photo or on your 4949.

I sent this to BugGuide I.D. request. The closest I can come up with is a 
female European Corn Borer - Hodges#4949 (Ostrinia nubilalis); Crambid Snout 
Moths (Crambidae) » Pyraustinae » Pyraustini » Ostrinia ». 
It came to my porch light in Johnson City, TN (Washington County) on 7-27-09.
This lead me to question my previous I.D. of 4949 in my Flickr moth photo 
collection
