Walnut Sphinx

Amorpha juglandis

Walnut Sphinx

Adult walnut sphinx moths inhabit deciduous forests, orchards, and wooded suburban areas across eastern North America. They are chiefly nocturnal and fly quickly through the tree canopy, often coming to lights after dark. Adults are mottled gray-brown for bark-like camouflage, and their larvae depend on walnut-family trees for food.
