NEW SPHINX MOTH RECORD FOR THE UNITED STATES
A high school student, Mr. Thane Hodson of Ottawa, Kansas found a huge moth seated on his back porch light on August 14, 1969. Mr. William D. Field, curator of insects at the United States National Museum, identified the moth as a male specimen of Protoparce albiplaga (Walker). The moth was evidently a windborne example from the neotropics. Many other tropical species such as Pholus labruscae, P. vitis, Erynnis ello, E. alope, Erebus odora, and Thysania zenobia (see season summaries) have all been taken at Ottawa during previous summers. However, this is the first time that Protoparce albiplaga has been taken in the United States. It is a Brazilian species normally occurring no farther north than southern Mexico. The specimen, in nearly perfect condition, has been deposited in the United States National Museum.
