Ken,
I noted to Larry last night that it looks like to me that the first
photo on the Hummingbird clearwing is wrong,
http://www.butterfliesandmoths.org/images?l=3437. I did not go down further
on the Snowberry page and agree with you, that also looks wrong. When I was
identifying my Snowberry, DJ pointed out the buffy body and Jason said that
the black legs were diagnostic for Snowberry. I think both pages need to be
check by BAMONA.
Michael

I was just looking at BugGuide and BAMONA and was about to reply when your
post came in. If the ID info on BugGuide is correct, BAMONA has some
incorrect pics on their Snowberry page.
