Moth to identify please...

Hello all,

Here is a moth I photographied at Sherbrooke, Canada, in June 2009.

I think it is a Noctuidae but I'm not sure.

Any idea about the family/genus/species???

Thank you very much in advance,

Michel

Hello Don,

Finally I had identified it as Hypena deceptalis (Deceptive Bomolocha).

Cheers,

Michel
