Maple Zale - Zale galbanata
Ailsa Craig, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada

Came to garage light. I thought this might be Zale phaeocapna shown at Lynn Scott's site and CBIF but the date is more than two months later than Lynn Scott's latest date. Hmmmmm.
(update: title changed from "pale Zale")

8692 -- Maple Zale -- Zale galbanata
In The Owlet Moths of Ohio there are three photos of this species. Your photo is a very good match for one of them. The late dates in both northern and southern Ohio are in September (until Sept. 23 in Maryland)
