Can you identify which species this 3 to 4 inch wingspan moth is?

Streaked Sphinx
Dear John,
We just learned on the Sphingidae of the Americas website that the common name for your moth, Protambulyx strigilis strigilis, is the Streaked Sphinx. We are going to copy Bill Oehlke on our response as he may want to include your sighting data on his website since it is indicated that December sightings in Florida are not common.
Hi Daniel,
Thank you very much for the identification and the website!
John
