Description

Clanis undulosa, the wavy velvet hawkmoth, is a moth of the family Sphingidae first described by Frederic Moore in 1879. The nominate subspecies is found in the southern Russian Far East, the Korean Peninsula and north-eastern China, as far as south and west as Shaanxi and Hebei. South from Sichuan (Baoxing), Hubei, Jiangxi (Guling) and Zhejiang (Tianmu Shan), it is replaced by ssp. gigantea, which ranges west to Nepal and south, through Thailand and Vietnam, to Peninsular Malaysia.
