Abstract:

"The authors illustrate the habitus and male genitalia, and the results of DNA barcoding of four of the five continental species of the Eumorpha obliquus group. New country records are given for Eumorpha zaplutus Haxaire, 2015 from Ecuador and Bolivia, and Eumorpha boivini Haxaire, 2015 from Ecuador, Panama and Guatemala, the last representing a remarkable geographical range extension for that species."
