Manduca blackburni
''Manduca blackburni'', commonly known as Blackburn's Sphinx Moth, Hawaiian Tomato Hornworm, and Hawaiian Tobacco Hornworm, is a species of moth in the family Sphingidae. It is endemic to Hawaii. Previously known from all of the main islands, this rare moth is now limited to Maui, the Big Island, and Kahoolawe. It is found in coastal mesic and dry forests at elevations from sea level .
''M. blackburni'' is closely related to the tomato hornworm (''M. quinquemaculata''), which it also physically resembles. It was listed as an endangered species by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service in 2000, making it the first Hawaiian insect to receive such a status.〔
Larvae feed on plants in the nightshade family, Solanaceae, especially native ''aiea'' (''Nothocestrum'' spp.), but also non-native tomatoes (''Solanum lycopersicum''), tobacco (''Nicotiana tabacum''), tree tobacco (''N. glauca''), jimson weed (''Datura stramonium''), and eggplant (''Solanum melongena''). The adult feeds on nectar from native plants such as ''koali awa'' (''Ipomoea indica'') and ''maiapilo'' (''Capparis sandwichiana'').
