Re:Erebid?
Might be Celery Leaftier - Hodges#5079 (Udea rubigalis) . It's hard to say for sure. The markings are faint.

Yes,
...that's what I thought, but I'm not familiar with eastern species, so I didn't go any further than genus. We also have Udea profundalis here which is almost identical, though seems be confined to the west of the Rockies.

Assume you have probably found it, but in case not, the Moth Photographers Group website is excellent for moths. That's usually my first stop for something new.

Thanks!
We searched all the moth images at butterfliesandmoths.org, but they didn't have a picture of this one.
