Moved from Owlet Moths. Compare to this BOLD image.

 
elisae
I'll agree, though the selected BOLD image (otherwise very much like mine) seems to lack the claviform hairpin. This seems though to vary, most MPG images show it, along with some of the less rotten BOLD images. The deeply cleft reniform spot seems to separate elisae from other cosmia.
