Food Sources update

I'm pretty sure I've got these in my yard eating Boerhavia, as attested at http://nitro.biosci.arizona.edu/zeeb/butterflies/Sphynx.html

Add to food sources? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8800:7380:4BE0:284C:6FB2:BD17:A890 (talk) 01:59, 31 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review

Hello! I am reviewing this page for a WashU Biology course. This article for the most part had good organization and great sectioning. I reorganized a few paragraphs in terms of relevant information, and I shifted some sentences from one section to another. I also added more details on the food source of adult butterflies, which differs depending on whether they’re diurnal or nocturnal. Then I added information in the “interactions with humans” section, in which they were used as a food source by Native Americans. I then added the appropriate references to the new information that I added. Awesome job! Z.kelley —Preceding undated comment added 19:55, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I thought the article had great organization through many specific subsections. I thought the lead paragraph didn’t fully grab my attention, so I added a little bit about their social larvae behavior to make it stand out more. I like the listing of food resources, I thought that was original and unique from the other Wikipedia pages I have seen. I thought the detailed section on tongue length was interesting and an example of the moth’s individuality. Maybe add a citation under Parental care, but I didn’t change it because I thought it came from the same citation as Oviposition. I got rid of the heading Caterpillar sociality because I thought it was repetitive to place underneath the heading Social behavior. I also made some minor grammatical changes to improve the flow of the article. Thanks and awesome job! engelde —Preceding undated comment added 23:13, 12 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit suggestions

I made some minor changes to correct italicization and capitalization of names. I would recommend adding more information to some of the short sections and adding links throughout! Mnoronha456 (talk) 03:14, 30 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think this is an overall well-done article about an interesting organism! I would suggest adding some more internal Wikipedia links to relevant pages. If there is any information available about this moth's mating habits or interactions with other species, such as cooperation, parasitism, etc. then those would also be useful additions to the page.

Conservation status

What's the conservation status of this species? How do I get the conservation status of a species? --User123o987name (talk) 00:05, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
