🦋Hummingbird hawk-moth

Macroglossum stellatarum Linnaeus, 1758

Macroglossum stellatarum (Türkçe: Güvercin Kuyruklu Atmaca Güvesi) bir güve türü. Tırtıl halinde bolca yaprak tüketir. Yumurtalarını yaprak altlarına bıraktığından ötürü üstten püskürtmeli ilaçlarla mücadele edilmesi zor bir türdür. Çift kanatlı olup uzun hortumlarıyla bitki özünü toplayarak beslenir. Özellikle patlıcangiller familyasına ait bitki yapraklarında yaşar. Kamuflaj yeteneğiyle bilinebilir. Örneğin bir arı kovanından bal almak istediği zaman arı kovanının kokusunu taklit ederek kovana girer. Bir arıdan 100 kat büyük olmasına karşın kovan asayişinden sorumlu olan işçi arılar tarafından fark edilmezler.
