Field Notes

Description:

Order: Lepidoptera / Family: Sphingidae -- but which Genus?!?

Habitat:

Asia: Philippines

Notes:

I originally thought this to be a Pandorus Sphinx Moth but when I googled, wiki indicated it's found in North America. Oleander Hawk-moth's habitat is Asia -- could this be it?
