[edit] Tobacco/Tomato Hornworms

Im not sure but I think tobacco and tomato hornworms are separate insects, very similar though.

Yes, they are. See [1].Super Rad! 02:50, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

I just found a Tomato Hornworm that is the thickness of my thumb and measures at least 10CM in length. I have seen many tomato hornworms, but nothing like this one.

Hmm, that does sound quite possible. Does anyone have a good source on average/maximum sizes?Alex Weeks 22:36, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
