Presumed Tortricid  - Archips grisea

Presumed Tortricid - Archips grisea
Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida, USA
April 15, 2012
Size: ~ 13mm
Light attracted. Looks to me to be a tortricid moth, and there are some on the galleries that come close, but I did not find a convincing match. I am puzzled by the brown pattern across the forewings consisting of two separate spots and a faded portion towards the inner margin. P.S. After looking at more images at MPG, I am now leaning towards 3688 Clepsis peritana.

A minimalistic grisea
Thank you, Jason, for setting this straight. It was in my early BG days and I did not pay attention to size data. It would have to be a giant C. peritana!
