 White Lined Sphinx Moth Pupae -- Hyles lineata

****SHIPPING to ALL 50 States. 

White Lined Sphinx are lovely hummingbird moths, common throughout the lower 48 states and the Pacific Northwest.  Typically active at dusk nectaring on various flowers, we also see these flying during the day throughout the Columbia Basin. When they hold still long enough, the distinctive pink coloring on their hindwings is gorgeous. (It's pretty as a fast-moving blur, too.) 

Item Details:

  • You will receive one live White Lined Sphinx pupae 
  • Pupae will be verified live and healthy before shipment.
  • Pupae are diapausing, and will hatch/eclose in spring 2026.
  • Packed like royalty and carefully shipped.
  • We guarantee shipping a live pupa. Because this is a live animal, there are no other guarantees after shipment.

General Directions:

  • Keep inside in a pop-up tent/rearing cage (also available on our site), on top of paper towel.
  • Mist daily, as inside air is quite dry.
  • (On Arrival) Around Thanksgiving/End of November, place the pupa into a sealed container and into the refrigerator. 
  • Keep in the fridge at approximately 38F, venting monthly for a few minutes and removing any visible moisture.
  • Remove pupa from the fridge in spring, about 3 weeks prior to the natural flight of this species in the region. We typically remove White Lined Sphinx around April 1st.
  • Place pupa in clean, slightly moist potting soil or coconut coir. Pupa should be surrounded by the medium, but visible from above. Lightly mist with water daily.  This species pupates underground and this helps mimic natural humidity levels.
  • Pupa should eclose (hatch) in 3-6 weeks.  
  • White Lined Sphinx prefers warmth to assist in eclosion, so try to keep temperatures above 70F.  On our farm we usually keep them around 80F.
  • Wild release - okay all states
  • There are many resources and online groups to handle questions about live butterflies and moths and pupae care. Send us an email if you get stuck :)

    A true turtleneck that retains a snug high neck.
    Color: White, Size: X-Large
    I've found this brand to have gotten better over the years as far as offering the American market what it needs in terms of realistic sizing. I only wish they'd realize that there are a lot of us who are long in the back and arms where my only choice is to go a size up and sacrifice a slim fit for sleeves that are long enough plus a back that doesn't go up past my waist just because I reach up for something, that and I like to be warm. So these are such nice quality turtlenecks that it's hard to complain about but maybe the company will read this. The snug neck stays up is plus number one since that's why I'm buying a full neck. They come with very nice weaves in the fabric, good enough for casual or formal wear. Finally the warmth you seek is there but I've worn them in what most would think isn't the right temp for a turtleneck. Also they have them in white! Yes, a lot of others just don't for reasons I can't fathom, and the pic you're seeing is accurate, these will form to your shape without being ridiculously thin material. Several washes later and they are as fine a garment as when I first wore them. I've only found one other brand that compares to these but it's much more expensive, COOFANDY is affordable in these times of expensive everything. Warm but also a lightweight shirt, I've gotten them really dirty with actual dirt and it washes out so well you'd never know it. Don't let my taking off one star stop you, try one yourself and you'll be coming back for more.
