Sphingidae of Venezuela

This checklist has recently (April 1, 2005) been updated to reflect the list provided from the work of María Esperanza Chacín as was recently sent to me at Hawkmoths of Venezuela. Additions to my original list and individual files are followed by MEC for María Esperanza Chacín.

I have used the nomenclature from Kitching and Cadiou 2000.
