Very interesting creature! This moth was first spotted last night on my porch on Barksdale Air Force Base (Bossier City, LA). It was the first night I had my bug zapper turned on, so I believe that's what ultimately attracted it. When I got up this morning to take the dog out, I noticed it was still there, just chillin'! Are these native to this area???
