NEW SPHINGIDAE 
BY BENJAMIN PRESTON CLARK 
Ir is a pleasure, after the lapse of a year, to describe further 
species and subspecies of Sphingidae which I believe to be new. 
A number of these have been found in examining carefully all 
the American coliections of this family. Five new forms from 
South America, and three from Mexico, give promise of a 
further enlargement of the known Sphingid fauna of these 
countries. Of the remainder three are from Africa, one from 
the Philippines, and one from North America north of Mexico. 
Two corrections I desire to make in my paper! of Dec. 5, 1916. 
Amplypterus gannascus denton should be known as Amplypterus 
dentoni, for, as Dr. Karl Jordan kindly called to my attention, 
Amplypterus gannascus occurs in Peru, and two subspecies of 
the same species cannot be residents in the same locality. The 
habitat of Protoparce afflicta bahamensis should have been stated 
as Andros Island. My friend Dr. W. M. Mann visited Andros 
in June, 1917, and collected in the same locality where Mr. 
Engelhardt took the type; he failed, however, to find further 
specimens, and it must be a rare moth.
