C'mon, a Tellie-Tubie??
Looks like a possible replica of 7895 - Sigmoid Prominent Moth - Clostera albosigma

Move to genus?
In a quick search I saw several of same general shape, but nothing close enough to be confidant of species. Should I move it to the Clostera genus page?

btw, you must have grandkids, Bob. I don't even know what a Tellie Tubbie looks like ...

Just 11 :-)) but...
.... I doubt they had Tellie-tubies. Jerry Falwell was so against them. I really think it is that species, but maybe placing that particular photo at genus level is best.

We're off to Florida for about three weeks. Bye.
