Hello,
I believe this is a Tersa Sphinx moth. Taken on a cool early morning October 4th. Was resting under a porch light.

Dear A Fan,
Your identification of this Tersa Sphinx is correct. In our opinion, this is one of the most aerodynamic looking Sphinx Moths in a family known for streamlined appearances.
