Laothoe populi

Laothoe populi, the poplar hawk-moth, is a moth of the family Sphingidae. It is found throughout the Palearctic realm and the Near East and is one of the most common members of the family in the region. The larva of this insect is pale green on first hatching, at which point it is known as a "hornworm", later developing yellow diagonal stripes on its sides, and pink spiracles. This photograph shows a late instar stage L. populi larva in the Parc du Marquenterre, Saint-Quentin-en-Tourmont, France.
