I spotted this, what I believe to be, Walnut Sphinx Moth on the outside wall to my office building, which just so happens to be in the same area as the Waved Spinx Moth I posted about back on May 31.
They prefer Walnut and butternut, hickory, alder, beech, hazelnut, and hop-hornbeam, and range from Maine south to Florida, west to North Dakota and west Texas, and south to Nuevo Leon, Mexico Their conservation status is common and widespread in forests.
Smaller that the Waved Spinx moth but equally as attractive.
