Manduca andicola is a moth of the family Sphingidae first described by Walter Rothschild and Karl Jordan in 1916. It is found from Central America to Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and Argentina.[2]
It is similar to Manduca lefeburii, Manduca incisa and Manduca jasminearum in having a relatively uniform forewing upperside with a conspicuous, rather diffuse dark band running from about midway along the costa to the outer margin and incorporating the discal spot.
