Elegant Hawkmoth

Eupanacra elegantulus

Eupanacra elegantulus is a moth of the family Sphingidae. It is known from south-east Asia, including Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

It is similar to Eupanacra mydon, except for the pattern elements found on the upperside of the forewing which are much clearer. Furthermore, the discal spot is larger in males and more prominent in females since these have a paler ground colour. There are two rows of black dots and a large black spot on the underside of the abdomen.
