Sphingidae of Paraguay

Xylophanes tersa Paraguay (widespread), courtesy of Ulf Drechsel.

Although I believe these "tribal" checklists contain only species within Paraguay, I fully expect there are many omissions. If you have corrections to offer, please contact
Bill Oehlke at oehlkew@islandtelecom.com.

I am most thankful to Jean Haxaire for sending me an electronic copy of Faune de Bolivie, Lépidoptères Sphingidae, Ecologie et systématique.

I have used Haxaire's list as a starting point, but have only included those species, from the list, generally recognized as flying in Argentina.

I have added those species whose specimen type locality is Argentina.

In September 2007, Paul Smith directed me to the site, Fauna Paraguay where a provisional checklist has been created, using Moré, Kitching & Cocucci - Sphingidae: Hawkmoths of Argentina; www.pybio.org; and this site: Oehlke - Hawkmoths of the Americas.

I have delisted the species not indicated by Paul Smith, and I have followed additions from Paul's list with his initials.
