Steve,
Good find! You have added a new species for Ohio.

According to my new Peterson Field Guide, "multicolred FW has abstract pattern of pale orange, lilac and maroon, overlaid with a network of white lines and veines. Tip of abdomen has pincerlike appendages."

Thanks and happy...
that everything worked out. I chilled this guy for the photograph, was worried at delayed recovery but it did fly away after about 80 minutes.

Isn't the new Moth Guide great?

Look up Silky Sallow - Hodges #9950 in it :)
