Sphingidae Hawkmoths

I don't know what to say. Let's wait, maybe someone else will speak out

Spots on the sides may appear and disappear, but the key signs are less obvious. For the ocular hawk moth, these are, in particular, the bluish sides of the horn, which are yellowish in the poplar moth, and the head (as already mentioned)...
Worse are the caterpillars of poplar from aspen, and ocular from blind.
Unfortunately, a year ago I didn't understand a fig about this((

I would like to once again introduce Dolbina elegans stessensi (dear RippeR has already exhibited a butterfly caught by him somewhere).
This specimen is interesting because it was caught in Ukraine, moreover - 40 km west of Odessa, on August 01, 1996. so not only Moldova can be proud of this butterfly.

And the second butterfly close to the genus Dolbina: Dolbinopsis grisea-Tajikistan, Kondara, botsad, born on June 12, 1991. Gives several generations, eats ash.

Hmm.. so he seems to have caught one.. So he traded it for you? And then I'm this (and maybe another) ekz seen at the exhibition

Well, if there is a possibility, then I usually do not catch the object for photographing, and then, if everything you see, catch...... I don't even know what to say .

P.S. and the butterfly was photographed alive, so I didn't throw it out

Well, you never know what anyone saw and caught!!!
On the same Borneo " sea "of material"!!!
