CLOSED: Weird Bug ID

Spencerville, OH(Zone 6a)

Hey everyone. Seen this little guy stuck on my door when I went to open it, and remember seeing these a few other times, but went out of my head until just now. I wouldn't even know where to start researching these guys, so hope someone could lend a hand ID'ing it. Thanks so much!

Wow, that was a quick response. Judging by a lot of those pics, it seems you nailed it right on the head.

It really baffles me how you folks seem to know all this stuff lol. Is there some trick to researching different insects and figuring it out through google, or is this just an incredible amount of knowledge from years of researching? Seems there's an answer regardless of how weird the insect is.

Thanks so much for solving the mystery for me. Much appreciated.

In my case, I have ID'd this insect more than once before, so I recognized it right off. Flapdoodle, frequent participant on this forum, is an experienced, trained entomologist with an amazing wealth of knowledge.
