I am pretty sure I have the specimen, same moth as in the photo. It is in the
Reedy Creek Park Nature Center collection. I have staff checking to confirm it
is there, but my personal catalog of photos and collected specimens indicates
it is there. Will confirm as soon as I hear back.

Taylor, I sent your photo off to the guy that does all the Bar-coding. Here are
his comments.:
"Paul: I am unsure about this moth. It seems too large for Ipimorpha, the
most southern records I know of are Ky (listed in Va. but Covell given as
reference meaning not caught in recent times) and Ferguson believed it only
feeds on poplar or aspen which other than the ornamental silver poplar leaves
Mecklenburg County out. I wonder if it could be a late flying Phoberia. Size
seems right and the pattern varies all over the place. June is late for it but
maybe a stray one delayed by some factor or the photographic date is not right.
Need I say it again, if we only had a specimen we could be sure. Best I can
do."
Hope this helps some. Paul
