Saddled Prominent - Cecrita guttivitta
Hoosier National Forest, Monroe County, Indiana, USA
June 8, 2010
I believe that this may be an owlet moth. Can anyone confirm and direct me towards genus/species?

Since I got the reply of Notodontidae, now I think it might be a Saddled Prominent (Heterocampa guttivitta)
