Sphingidae of Jamaica

Xylophanes chiron nechus courtesy of Paolo Mazzei.

Although I believe these "tribal" checklists contain only species within Jamaica, there are probably some omissions, and there may be a few improper entries.

Reser Ladislaus reports starred items are among the thirty-eight species recorded at Spring Garden, near Reading, west of Montego, 1992-1997.

Enyo latipennis has been given full species status by Kitching and Cadiou, 2000.
