Morning-glory Prominent - Hodges#8005 - Schizura ipomoeae
Pickens County, Georgia, USA
August 9, 2009
Size: length 22 mm.
I think this is Schizura ipomoeae (form cinereofrons), but confirmation (or correction)
would be appreciated.

Found at porch light, in resting position with "tail" end sticking up.

[Thanks to Bob Patterson for confirming this ID.]
