Forcepfly, Merope tuber, female - Merope tuber - female

Forcepfly, Merope tuber, female - Merope tuber - Female
Corning, Perry County, Ohio, USA
October 5, 2013
This female came to my blacklight/floodlight moth sheet in the driveway. I live in a rich, mesic woods and I have several water features in my yard. This is only the second time seeing this insect, and shortly after she appeared another female flew in. It was a warm night.
