Hi Everyone,
Can someone help me identify this Moth? I'm in Eastern Pa (about an hour NW of Philadelphia). This moth was on a co-worker's neighbor's screen and she captured a picture of it because it was oddly shaped and very pretty with the purple and brown.
We were just wondering if anyone knew what kind of moth it was.
Thanks!!!
Pretty but unknown Moth
It's a sphinx moth; it looks like a blinded sphinx (Paonias excaecata) - http://www.butterfliesandmoths.org/species/Paonias-excaecata
