Hindwing appears folded partially over abdomen where spots would occur which gives the impression of spots. FW pattern seems to match Herpetogramma centrostrigalis in MPG or fluctuosalis in BG. http://mothphotographersgroup.msstate.edu/species.php?hodges=5278 or http://bugguide.net/node/view/559324/bgimage
