Here is a unit tray (from a friend's collection) of the very beautiful Banded Sphinx. All were collected in far southern Illinois which is just about as far north as this species gets. I have only been fortunate enough to collect 2 in my visits down there. It kind of reminds me of a supersize White-lined sphinx. The pink + green on the hind-wings along with the forewing bands makes it a breathtaking species to capture !
