Hodges #9944 - Roadside Sallow Moth - Metaxaglaea viatica
Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida, USA
December 13, 2015
Size: Forewing ≈23mm
Attracted to black light. I realize that IDs are difficult to assign to sallow moths, but this individual matches very well others posted for Mwtaxaglaea viatica, and its features conform with the description in BugGuide. I would not know what else it can be.
