    Taken long long time ago at Bukit Timah hill. Any idea what's the ID of this moth?

    Hmm, Sky Blue, what makes you think this is a hawk moth?

    The photo depicts a geometrid moth, subfamily Ennominae, genus = Krananda
    Not entirely sure which species, though is close to K. semihyalina.
