Oleander hawk-moth (Daphnis nerii)


Hawk-moths are some of the best fliers of the lepidopterans. With their powerful thoracic muscles, streamlined shapes and tough build, they achieve speeds of over 30 miles an hour. The oleander hawk-moth has delta-shaped wings with a span of 5 in. Its colouration acts as camouflage, rather than as a warning to predators.
