Diaphania nitidalis
Male and females have hairpencils at the end of the abdomen to disperse pheremones to attract mates. Brown and white.
This moth came to our window at night.
I see that the brown border around the wings looks like indica not nitidalis. Since my last comment I have found Diaphania hyalinata. Looks just like indica to me. See entnemdept.ufl.edu.
Sorry I haven't figured out how to add links.
Thanks Ornithoptera for pointing me in the right direction. I believe this is Diaphania nitidalis. See my pickleworm spotting.
