I can't believe I found one of these! Right on my front porch last night. Thought it was a small moth until I took a closer look. It does belong in Genus Otiocerus, but I don't know the species.

Thanks!
First for Virginia! I live in a fairly heavily wooded area with mostly oak trees in varying species.

You are right - it has been taken in NC and MD but not in VA, until now.
