Contribution to the study of the genus Macropoliana, Carcasson, 1968 (Lepidoptera, Sphingidae)

Abstract

Contribution to the study of the genus Macropoliana Carcasson, 1968 (Lepidoptera, Sphingidae). A study undertaken to verify the identification of specimens of the genus Macropoliana from Malawi has led to discover a confusing situation of the M. natalensis species group. Verifications have led, on one hand, to set M. oheffernani in synonymy with M. natalensis, and on the other hand, to describe a new species M. gessi n. sp. The variability of M. natalensis is discussed and the status of M. ferax is confirmed. Habitus and genitalia of these species are figured.
