Heterocampa
Definitely Heterocampa.

I think Heterocampa umbrata. Again from Wagner: green, tan, pink or reddish brown...white saddles over t3-4 and rear of body separate...prothorax with pair of raides, shiny reddish knobs to either side of white middorsal patch. Head uniformly tan-pink to ochre...thoracic legs usually reddended. Antennal base yellow.

closest I could find on Bug Guide:
