Luna Moth - Rare SpecimenLarge green moth in GA
This moth visited my back deck on a warm rainy night this June 11, 2005. One pair if "eyes" on the wings is clearly visible in the photo; there is another pair on the secondary wings, and you can just make them out through the top wings. There appears to be damage to the covered wings in the photo. Is this a type of Satellite Sphinx moth?
Thanks
Mike Duffy
Hi Mike,
Your moth is a Luna Moth, perhaps the lovliest North American Moth.
