Pandora sphinx moth

Found this lovely little creature in our apartment, lying on the floor motionless. Thought it was dead but it fluttered it wings wildly when I picked it up. Placed it in a flower pot, next to a plant, the only safe place around. With little research I found a moth similar to this one. So I'm guessing this camouflage pattern moth is called Pandora Sphinx Moth (Eumorpha pandorus).
