Clanidopsis

Wikipedia Abstract

Clanidopsis is a genus of moths in the Sphingidae family, containing only one species Clanidopsis exusta, which is found from northern Pakistan (Margalla Hills) and north-western India, eastward along the southern slopes of the Himalaya to central Nepal and neighbouring parts of Tibet and Hubei in China. The wingspan is 70–96 mm. It is similar to Clanis species, but the proboscis is much shorter and the forewing is broader and not falcate apically. The forewing underside is lacking a black streak posterior to the discal cell and the hindwing upperside is lacking the black basal patch.
