オオスカシバは、ホバリングしながら、ストローのような口吻で花の蜜を吸います。花にとまらないので、受粉には貢献していないと思います。羽を広げた大きさが5~7cm位と大きいので、小さな花に止まるのは難しいのかもしれません。
私は、大型で毛の生えた蛾は苦手です。出会いたくないので、夜間に行動してもらいたいのですが、生憎オオスカシバは日中に行動します。
The pellucid hawk moth hovers and sucks nectar from a flower with its straw-like proboscis. I don't think they play a role in pollination because they don't perch on a flower. It may be hard for them to perch on a small flower due to their large wingspan, which is between 5 and 7 cm.
I don’t really like big hairy moths. I don't want to encounter them, so I would like them to be active at night. Unfortunately, pellucid hawk moths are active during daylight hours.
