I would like to thank Michael Korn (Konstanz) for this successful joint collecting trip to Tuni- sia and his specific help in looking out for Euphorbia plants and Hyles caterpillars. Special thanks also go to Paolo Mazzei (Rome), who first determined these larvae as H. dahlii on the basis of the single specimen I gave to him during my return journey. I am indebted to Ian J. Kitching (London) for his correction of my language and for very helpful suggestions to this note. I would also like to ex- press gratitude to the late Clas Naumann for his long-term interest and participation in the collection of Hyles samples for our joint studies with Ian J. Kitching and Michael Wink (Heidelberg). REFERENCES Dapporto, L., Cecchi, B., Lo Cascio, P. & Sforzi, A.
