Probole
Looks more like Dogwood Probole to me, but I see that amicaria and nyssaria have been merged.

From the genus page
After revision and DNA work (among numerous other approaches) on the genus by Tim Tomon, it was determined that there is only a single Probole species in North America, and so they have been lumped under the senior name, amicaria. At this point, there is no longer any separate species of nepiasaria, alienaria or nyssaria.
