Actually, a Noctuid is any moth in Family Noctuiidae, a huge family.
This particular species is Spilosoma virginica. Unfortunately earlier, I did not have its name in my forebrain when I wrote my previous comment
@AstralSmoke
Leopard Moth, the adult form of one of the Woolly Bears
@Leafhead So cool and appropriately named.
