Thanks MOwendy! I think you are right. I went and compared some other images from bugguide also, and I think you are spot on. If anyone wants to chime in with something different, I'll deal with that later:) Thanks for your help!

You will want to wait for another confirmation since I'm just guessing, but the markings match well. This picture matches the color better: http://www.museum.state.il.us/ismdepts/zoology/lepidoptera/gallery.html?RollID=roll01&FrameID=Asterocampa_celtis
