Small Tolype
Repeating comments from another image, which I moved:

Small Tolype, T. notialis. The postmedian line on the forewing is very jaggy, it is smooth in Large Tolype, T. velleda. Also, T. notialis is very dark, T. velleda more consistently gray. (This is a rather gray T. notialis, I guess.)

Thank you,
and I found one that looks like these today that is white with tiny black speckles. I'll post it tomorrow, hopefully.

 
White with speckles sounds like


Dot-lined white, Artace cribraria. I had several the other night, too. Lovely, aren't they?

I'm sorry I didn't get the caterpillar.....it's really neat looking.
