Large Tolype Moth. - Tolype velleda - Male
Pickens County, Georgia, USA
October 22, 2008
Found at porch light on kitchen window. Since this moth was on glass, flash reflection made it tough to get a half-way decent shot. I finally got the angle right.
This one was found late at night. The next afternoon I found five of this species on the porch.
