Acherontia styx, the lesser death's head hawkmoth or bee robber, is a sphingid moth found in Asia, one of the three species of death's-head hawkmoth. It is very fond of honey, and bee keepers have reported finding dead moths in their hives as a result of bee stings.

They are also known to be a pest of yuzu in South Korea, using their tongue to pierce and damage the fruit.
