Eumorpha achemon

Achemon Sphinx

Achemon sphinx moths inhabit forests, vineyards, thickets, and suburban gardens across much of North America. Active mainly at dusk and night, they hover at flowers to drink nectar with a long coiled proboscis. The adult's broad wings carry pink and brown markings, and its rapid flight can make it resemble a small hummingbird.
