Polyptycus orthographus
Wings with segments of harmonious forest-themed colours enables this hawk moth blend effortlessly into vegetation. This moth is easily my favourite; those patterns are just exceptional, spanning an impeccably symmetric set of wings, and unhindered by a mild thoracic elevation. Nature's incredible!
