Hornworm found on Muscadine grapes - Darapsa myron
Copyright © 2017 Dave Green

Hornworm found on Muscadine grapes - Darapsa myron
Pee Dee region County, South Carolina, USA
December 31, 1969
Size: 3.5 cm
Is there a hornworm/sphinx moth species that feeds on grapes? While I was picking Muscadines, I either "picked" this hornworm, or it dropped into my bowl. I did not see it on the foliage.
