Located in northwestern Ecuador, bordered to the west by the Pacific Ocean, to the north by Esmeraldas Province, to the east by Esmeraldas, Pichincha and Guayas Provinces, and to the south by Guayas Province, Manabi is host to many Saturniidae species.
Those species followed by CL are confirmed by Claude Lemaire, those followed by HK are confirmed by Horst Kach; those followed by LR are confirmed by Luigi Racheli. N.B.: Those species followed by my initials, WO, are unconfirmed, but I feel they might be present.
