AN ANNOTATED CHECKLIST OF THE SPHINGIDAE OF BOLIVIA, October 2007 Updated as per http://www.pybio.org/SPHINGINAE.htm (Paraguay), October 2007 |
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.

Please send sightings/images to Bill. I will do my best to respond to
requests for identification help.
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
