天蛾科

天蛾科（學名：Sphingidae）是鱗翅目的一科，科名取自希臘語 “Sphinx”，即希臘神話中的怪物 “斯芬克斯”。天蛾科下轄 200 多個屬，約 1,450 個品種。本科物種大多數於熱帶生活，但其每一個地區都有其蹤影。本科昆蟲主要特徵是前翅狹長，後翅呈短三角形，複眼大，胸部粗壯，腹部末端尖及呈流線型，觸角端部細而彎曲。體型中等到大，所以可作快速及持續的飛行，最快可達每小時 40 到 50 公里。

分類

1.1 早期分類

在 1903 年，Rothschild and Jordan 最先為天蛾科物種作科學化的分類，以物種有沒有感毛（microtrichia），把整個科分為感毛組與無感毛組兩大組，下設五亞科七大族，分別如下：

(Rothschild & Jordan, 1903) Janse, 1932
：約 40 屬 200 種
（Ambulicinae）
Rothschild & Jordan, 1903

1.2 現時分類

現時的分類把原來的無感毛組一分為二，成為了天蛾亞科和目天蛾亞科；而原來的感毛組成為現在的長喙天蛾亞科。

天蛾科以下的 200 多個屬，現時分作三個亞科，分別如下：
面形天蛾族
天蛾族
鷹翅天蛾族（Ambulycini）
目天蛾族（Smerinthini）
絨天蛾族（Sphingulini）
