Tersa Sphinx
Xylophanes tersa
The adult tersa sphinx moth inhabits woodland borders, gardens, and other flower-rich warm areas. It visits blossoms at dusk and night, drinking nectar with its long coiled proboscis. Fast wingbeats allow it to hover briefly at flowers, and some individuals migrate long distances as seasons change.
