Mimas tiliae

[Notebaert]

Today we had a green coloured Lime Hawkmoth (Mimas tiliae) in our veranda, in Drongen near Ghent, Belgium. Before we had already other hawkmoths but it is the first time we have this species. Has someone information about its occurrence in Western Europe and on which trees the larva feed?
Thanks,
