New island records in the Philippines for two hawkmoths, Amplypterus panopus mindanaoensis and Marumba amboinicus luzoni, are presented together with a checklist (including synonyms) of congeners recorded in the country. The species were found in the vicinity of the 69KV NAPOCOR Power Load End Station in Codon, San Andres, Catanduanes, increasing the number of hawkmoth species record from the island to three. To date, Catanduanes still has a very low species count compared to other islands of the Philippine archipelago. Thus, further exploration and studies on hawkmoths should be conducted.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
