The Salicet Sphinx (''Smerinthus saliceti'') is a moth of the Sphingidae family. It is found in valleys and along streamsides from Mexico City north to western Texas, southern Arizona and extreme southern California. The wingspan is 67–89 mm. The forewing outer margin is wavy and the upperside of the forewing is gray-brown with distinct dark and light bands. The upperside of the hindwing is mostly red with a yellow tanned outer margin and a blue spot which is usually divided by a V-shaped black line. Adults are on wing from April to September, probably in two generations. The larvae feed on ''Salix'' and ''Populus'' species. There are two colour morphs, pale green and lime green. ==See also== *Smerinthus cerisyi *Smerinthus jamaicensis 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「Smerinthus saliceti」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
