Hummingbird Moths, Sphinx Moths or Hawk MothsWhat kind of moth is this?
Hello Bugman,
we are a Dutch couple and since February living in the north of the Dominican Republic. That is where we saw this moth, at least we think it is a moth. We have been searching the internet for we really want to know what kind of moth this is. Can you help us out here and is this a kind you see often? Thanks in advance for you help. Best regards,
Harm & Yvonne Jager
Hi Harm and Yvonne,
This is a Guady Sphinx, Eumorpha labruscae. It is occasionally found in the U.S., generally in Florida, but it is primarily a tropical species.
