    Two subspecies, Deilephila elpenor elpenor and Deilephila elpenor lewisii, were recognised in the past, but they are no longer regarded as well distinguished. Similarly the subspecies Deilephila elpenor szechuana is now thought to be a synonym for Deilephila elpenor elpenor. The subspecies Deilephila elpenor macromera, found in southern China, northern India, Bhutan and Myanmar, is still regarded as distinct. The related species, the Small Elephant Hawk-moth Deilephila porcellus and Chitral Elephant Hawk-moth Deilephila rivularis are similar but smaller and less colourful. (wiki) I stand corrected! make the most of it!

    These are common symptoms with long term bleeding canker, have the long strip cankers/necroses shown yet with the ribs developing in a almost if not completley helical fashion?

    the tree has some decay within the base, which was probably an armillaria attack but if the tree is in good health, which will be visible in the crown, then it has some years in it yet

    No, I flew back in early doors this morning, it was an amazing and unforgettable experience, would recommend it to anyone who would not want the typical tourists vacation. Romania rocks!
