I vote for S. eridania.

My first thought also. Another new one for refuge. These warm fall days/nights are bringing in some interesting moths.

Not so for me. I have had a lot of these at Schulenburg. I think this is a male (if I remember right). The females are much harder to ID because they have almost NO markings. I finally reared caterpillars to be sure of the ID.
