Gloveria sphingiformis  Early Instars - Gloveria sphingiformis - male

Gloveria sphingiformis Early Instars - Gloveria sphingiformis - Male
1.3 Miles NW of Camp Wood, Edwards County, Texas, USA
May 5, 2016
Male Gloveria springiformis. Note that wings have the look a "clear wing" and you can see through them in flight. They fly so fast that they cannot be caught by butterfly nets, are only day fliers and are not attracted to lights, so unless they are reared, no one knows what they look like.
