UnidentifiedHornworm…but what is it’s name?
December 17, 2009
Hey, just came back from a trip to Hluhluwe Game Reserve in Northern Natal, South Africa. I found this hornworm hanging around in the low foliage. Your site directed me to hornworms, but I can’t find a name for this specific one. Any help? Thanks, great site!

Unidentified Hornworm
Dear Etienne,
Sadly, we don’t know the species of your Hornworm. We are copying Bill Oehlke on our reply. He may be able to assist in the identification of this Hornworm in the family Sphingidae. Hopefully, he will know the answer and he will inform us both as to the identify of this lovely Hornworm.
