Eumorpha aff. analis (b) (Figs 8e–h, 9i–p) Characterization. Wings ranges from 11 to 11.09 cm, the length of the forewing range from 4.09 cm and the hindwing range from 2.8 cm. Head: brownish, median dark band, brown palpi with the white distal region. Thorax: brownish, tegulae in dark brown triangular shape, dark brown median band that extends to the head. Forewing: dorsal view: striated, discal bar with well-defined margins, leaving the base and extending to the half of the wing; discal band modified in two wavy dark brown discal stripes coming from the outer margin next to the discal spot, brownish “Y” spot coming out of the costal margin diagonally to the outer margin separating the darker apical margin; presence of three dark spots in the post-discal area and close to the “Y” spot; subapical patch in the form of an inverted trapezoid with a dark brown color; triangular spot on the inner margin without contour, submarginal stripe almost imperceptible, ventral view: predominantly light brown, spot varying from light brown to beige, non-uniform, ranging from the apex to the outer margin ending at the meeting with the inner margin, having a triangular projection towards the submarginal area in the middle of the outer margin followed by smaller undulations, two striations that go from the inner margin to the costal margin dividing the post-discal area from the submarginal area. Hindwing: dorsal view: discal spot extends to the apical area, outer margin with the lighter region having two dark points, ventral view: predominantly brown, with a greenish spot that extends from the base, passing through the inner margin ending at the anal angle, two striations that go from the inner margin to the costal margin, one separating the discal from the post-discal area and the other separating the post-discal area from the submarginal area. Abdomen: in the dorsal view, covered predominantly with brown scales, the first segment with a dark spot, and other segments with a pair of darker spots in the shape of an inverted triangle; in the ventral view, it is covered predominantly with light brown scales. Male genitalia: Uncus single sickle-shaped. Valva, equal in width, with an apex rounded. Sacculus, measuring approximately half the size of the valva, with the base slightly rounded. The saccular process is a slight external projection close to the apex. Sac projected in oval shape. The aedeagus, uniform tubular shape, with pointed projection at the apex. Diagnosis Habitus. similar to E. analis and Eumorpha aff. analis (a). It is differentiated by the genitalia having an external projection located near the tip of the sacculus and a short sac about the other species mentioned above (Figs 9k, 9o).
