Large Maple Spanworm Moth

Prochoerodes lineola

Identified by bugguide.net. The spot on the top near the head indicates that this is an older individual. This is the only species of Prochoerodes that is in the eastern United States. This individual was in the house. Wingnut captured it with a net, I photographed it, and then Wingnut released it outside.
