Bang-Haas, 1912, Akbesia davidi (Oberthür, 1884), Hemaris syra (Daniel, 1939), Hemaris molli Eitschberger, Müller & Kravchenko, 2005, Hemaris croatica croatica croatica [sic] (Esper, 1800), Pterodonta gorgoniades pfeifferi (Zerny, 1933), Proserpinus proserpina proserpina (Pallas, 1772), Hyles nicaea libanotica (Gehlen, 1932) and Rethera komarovi drilon Rebel & Zerny, 1932].
