Field Notes

Description:

Very large Sphinx moth. Arrow shaped, with double jagged lines on forewings. White reniform spots.

Habitat:

Spotted on a sheet hanging on my porch with black lights and halogens shining on it at night to attract moths. We live in a gated lake community surrounded by rural agricultural land, and some wooded areas.
National Moth Week 2017.
