Hello all,

Here are 2 pictures of a little moth photographied on the wall of my house at Sherbrooke, Quebec (near Vermont USA) last September 2008. It looks like he has a golden sheet over its body

I think it is a Noctuidae from the genus Papaipema but I'm not sure...

Any idea about its identification?

Thank you very much for your help
