I think you're right. I'll update the info, thank you very much for finding it. Much appreciated!
Sapping, After more looking, I believe your moth to be the Darling Underwing, Catocala cara: http://www.silkmoths.bizland.com/catcara.htm
Yes, they're considered minor pests since they feed on the leaves of trees, thereby "skeletonizing" them, hence the name.
