Synanthedon pictipes
Small moth with long body. Mostly shiny black with thin white stripes on thorax and wider part of abdomen. Clear wings.
Suburban backyard garden.
My first Clearwing Moth! I didn't realize they came in such a small size. Apparently feeds mostly on wild cherry. Makes me wonder why they named "Peachtree".

Awesome! (not for the peach, though!)
