Large brown, white and blue/green moth - Catocala

Large brown, white and blue/green moth - Catocala
Maplesville, Chilton County, Alabama, USA
October 10, 2017
Size: 4.5 cm WS measured
This was a large brown, white and bluish green moth that had a wingspan measured at 4.5 cm. He reminded me of the Agrippina Underwing Moth identified yesterday. His head was dark, middle area looked like bluish green icicles, and the lower part was light brown and gray. He had a row of small dark dots on the lower border. Did I find a Catocala serena – Serene Underwing Moth? http://mothphotographersgroup.msstate.edu/species.php?hodges=8779

This might be a Residua Underwing, Catocala residua. Hold on for an expert.

Thank you. I think it is Catocala residua. I also added another shot of a side view.
