Thank you;Leuba.
Hawk-moth in the span of the wings 55-80 mm. In the evening he eats on flowers, at night flies to the light. The pupa overwintered in the household in the ground. It hatched today. I saw the caterpillar last year-a greenish color with red dots (a young form). With the onset of dusk,he quickly flew out and disappeared .
