\"A new variant phenotype of Protambulyx eurycles (Herrich-Sch\äffer, 1854) from Paraguay is briefly described and illustrated. This phenotype is as divergent from typical P. eurycles as that species is from other members of the genus, however, the genitalia are identical. Chronologically this specimen is also the first of the species collected in Paraguay.\"
