Furcula modesta
See Modest Furcula "See Also" section for characters that distinguish modesta from other species (and click the link there that compares images of 5 species).

Appears to be White Furcula
Notodontidae - Furcula borealis. The background may be reflecting onto the outer margin of the forewing, giving it a yellowish tinge and overlaying the black dotted anal angle. The patterns are often slightly variable. There is a very nice lady who lives in Door County. She could be a lot of help with identification. Send a private message and I'll tell you how to contact her.
