Sphingidae of Chile

This checklist is probably not terribly accurate. I fully expect there are many omissions and erroneous entries. I have used a checklist for Argentina as a starting point, but the two countries are separated by the Andes and may have quite different fauna.

If you have corrections to offer, please contact
Bill Oehlke at oehlkew@islandtelecom.com.

Chile is bordered by Argentina on the East, the Pacific Ocean to the West, and is capped by Bolivia to the Northeast and Peru.
