Caddisfly - Pycnopsyche
Whitepath Road area, Gilmer County, Georgia, USA
October 17, 2011
Size: 22mm head to wingtip
Came to lights in mostly deciduous forest in North Georgia mountains at 1600' elevation. Stream located nearby. Resembles Great Brown Autumn Sedge, but the darker markings on the wings here are not distinct here.

Looks like Pycnopsyche lepida:

Pycnopsyche
There are several Pycnopsyche which occur that far south so you would have to look in detail at the private parts to determine species.
