Xylophanes mossi

Wikipedia Abstract

Xylophanes mossi is a moth of the family Sphingidae. It is known from Brazil. It is similar to Xylophanes rufescens, but the forewing upperside is uniform rust-brown and all other pattern elements are reduced or absent. Adults are probably on wing year round. The larvae probably feed on Rubiaceae and Malvaceae species.
