Original – Hyles lineata (White-Lined Sphinx Moth)

Reason: This image is the first upload of the Hyles lineata to display the insect's distinctive appearance in such detail. Unique EV of all Hyles lineata images. There are supplementary angles shared on the Hyles lineata article. Let me know if I should add one to the FP, one is side view. Wikipedia is the first upload destination for this image.
Articles in which this image appears: Hyles lineata
FP category for this image: Wikipedia:Featured pictures/Animals/Insects

Oppose. Sorry- as it's only used in a gallery, it's not really eligible for FP status. I'm also not so keen on the unnatural background, and the image quality is lacking; the bar for insect photography has been set high. J Milburn (talk) 23:22, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
