description Abbott's Sphinx Overview
Abbott's sphinx is a North American hawk moth, Sphecodina abbottii, in the family Sphingidae. Its caterpillars feed on grape and Virginia creeper, begin with a horn at the rear, and later develop an eye-like knob that resembles an eyespot. Mature larvae can occur in green-spotted or mottled brown forms, while the adult moth is less conspicuous; the species is of interest to observers of moths and field entomologists.
