Noctuidae is now called Erebidae. Arctiidae is now included as a subfamily, Arctiinae. This species looks like it is Pyrrharctia isabella, the adult of the wooly bear caterpillars.

If its hindwings are yellowish, it could be a large yellow underwing.

He/she is about an inch long. Should we be concerned about this fellow, considering that the gallery also includes a (prop) bedspread and curtains? Thanks for any insights you can provide!
