I planted moonflower this year and just as they said, the big moths came! Then, I caught one, but its not a sphinx or hawkmoth. It's big though, more than 6 cm across when resting. It's fairly triangular in shape. Is it possible to find a pictorial listing on the net. Alta vista gave me hundreds of hits, this one was the 80th I'd tried,     whew... gotta be a better way. 
I would be better at the scholarly half of bug catching, (identifying) but I spend too much time out catching them! Now I have a few hundred and hope to enlist my kids at my kids' school to help build a collection for their new lab. Steer us plz! Thanx.
