Hyalophora euryalus
Such a beautiful moth! I hope to spot one someday. Please consider adding your spottings to the Southern California Wildlife mission at: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/7964...
Beautiful find!
I agree with bayucca. Cecropia seem to generally have a red lining around the "hook" as well.
I first thought it was a Cecropia moth, but I think it is the other one. In Cecropia the "hook" on the hindwing is much shorter. Somebody should verify my guess!
