Wikipedia Abstract

Synanthedon myopaeformis is a moth of the family Sesiidae. In Europe it is known as the red-belted clearwing and in North America as the apple clearwing moth. The larvae create galleries under the bark of fruit trees, especially old ones with damaged trunks. This moth is native to Europe, the Near East and North Africa but has been introduced into North America, being first detected in Canada in 2005.
