Agrius cingulata
Large brown and black mottled moth with two rows of pink markings on abdomen. Length overall 43 mm, length of abdomen 30 mm, width 11 mm.
Suburban area on a mesic, tropical, insular lowland plateau.
Spotted in my garage, "deader 'n' a can of corned beef". Coloration of wings reminiscent of a Black Witch Moth (Ascalapha odorata) but abdominal coloration suggests to me that it is not that species.
Not to worry, Tukup. I'm no expert either so I always satisfy myself via my own research that a suggested ID is correct before accepting it. Thanks again.
Pink-spotted Hawk looks like a match and is found in Hawaii.
