Vin,
Your moth looks virtually identical to the one that I photographed on May 31 and, after studying BugGuide, labeled Xestia dolosa.

Hi All,
Imaged this moth this morning and believe it is H10942.1 Xestia dolosa, Greater Black-letter Dart Moth. Bug Guide says there are two closely related species (X. nigrum), which can be separate by region.. 

Yes?
