Beatuiful butterfly.  It looks like a Polygonia satyrus, or Satyr Angelwing, 
but there are a few related nymphs that look close.  Go to  
http://pick5.pick.uga.edu/mp/20q?guide=Nymphs and see if you can poke around 
to find it.  My dial up is too slow to look, and my butterfly books are at 
school.
