''Coelonia fulvinotata'' is a moth of the family Sphingidae. It is known from most habitats, excluding the more extreme ones, throughout the Ethiopian Region, from Gambia east to Ethiopia and south to northern South Africa and Madagascar. The length of the forewing is 52–55 mm for males and the wingspan is 101–111 mm. The body and wings are brown, with two bright pink dorsal hair tufts at the base of the abdomen. The forewings are mottled and variegated with lighter brown and dark indistinct wavy lines. The hindwings are darker, with a black basal patch surrounded by a large ochreous yellow patch. Females are larger and darker. The subapical area of forewings is much paler and more conspicuous. The larvae feed on ''Lantana camara'', ''Fraxinus floribunda'', ''Clerodendrum heterophyllum'', ''Dahlia variabilis'' and ''Duranta plumieri''.〔(Afromoths )〕 ==Subspecies== *''Coelonia fulvinotata fulvinotata'' *''Coelonia fulvinotata nigrescens'' Basquin, 1992 (Sao Tomé and Príncipe) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Coelonia fulvinotata」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
