I just spotted a Pandorus today in Ontario and from the initial google search thought it was an Oleander until I looked at the distribution on Wikipedia. They're both stunning. http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/index.php/pandorus-sphinx-moth?blog=19#c7033 lincoln park zoo [Member] in response to: Pandorus Sphinx Moth Tue, 17 Jan 2012 22:50:29 +0000 lincoln park zoo [Member] c2581@http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/ Maddy, Vicky replies: "South Africa is out of the range of this moth. I don't know how one would end up there, but it is an interesting sighting. Thanks for sharing." She also adds bugguide.net is a good reference for IDing your moth! http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/index.php/pandorus-sphinx-moth?blog=19#c2581 maddy [Visitor] in response to: Pandorus Sphinx Moth Tue, 17 Jan 2012 12:46:34 +0000 maddy [Visitor] c2573@http://www.lpzoo.org/blog/ We found a moth we think may be a Pandorus Sphinx moth - in South Africa?!<br /> Does anyone know how these came to be here?
