You're right, S. Frazier. Thank you.
Scott Frazier
More specifically this is likely a planthopper from the family Ricaniidae. See http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/7066947, http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6999257 or http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6953783.

Thanks for the correction, JuanDiTrani.

nop, this is not a butterfly or moth, is an Homopteran
