I am known as a Black Witch moth

I've been seen in Canada, but in Florida I'm native

We eat tropical plants, so there is no chance

In Canada we'll ever be invasive.

I am known as a Black Witch Moth
I'm the largest moth in North America
In some places they call me "the butterfly of death"
But that description is entirely chimerical.
