Snake-mimic caterpillar, Hemeroplanes triptolemus, Sphingidae from the Amazon rainforest near Puyo, Ecuador. When disturbed this larva of a sphinx moth expands and exposes the underside of the first body segments, mimicking a snake head with black eyes and even light reflections. Sometimes it also strikes like a snake to deter predators such as lizards or birds Video credits: Andreas Kay #biodiversity #conservation #climate #nature #forest #environment #wildlife #science #species | Biodiversity

Explaining Insects 🦋 on Instagram: "The sphinx moth is a large, powerful flier known for its fast, hovering flight that resembles a hummingbird. It belongs to the family Sphingidae and is found in many parts of the world. These moths have streamlined bodies, narrow wings, and are often beautifully patterned with earthy or vivid colors. As caterpillars, they’re called hornworms because of the small horn-like projection on their tail. They feed on plants like tomatoes, tobacco, and petunia
