\"In August 2018, Andr\é Brunschwiler and Thomas Maag had success in the ex-ovo breeding after the ovoposition of a moth of Lophostethus caught on light in Larabanga (West Gonja district, northern Ghana) Michael Moosburg, who participated in the breeding, informed me (Bo\štjan Dvo{\v r}\ák) about details of the successful breed of this unusual hawk-moth group already known and precisely documented by Ulf Eitschberger and Manfred Str\öhle. As the caterpillars, documented by Brunschwiler and Maag in different instars, which were bred on marsh-mallow shrub (Hibiscus syriacus, Malvaceae), also exhibit a few deviant characteristics, we decided to present the breed within this contribution. Besides the photos taken by Brunschwiler, Maag und Moosburg a few sketches by Dvorak are added, by which differences between the individuals from Ghana and those formerly known of Lophostethus dumolinii (Angas, 1849) is presented.\"
