Tom
Nygaard Kristensen;
this is probably Rhamma
nigrasarotina (look
in D'Abrera with wrong
spelling nigrosarotina). June 6,
2014; I found
a very nice picture of a Penaincisalia butterfly
in your web page.
Actually,
this is a new species to
science in a small
species-group. Im
reviewing taxonomically
and it was the subject of
my PhD thesis. I supose
you didnt collect this
specimen but any other
information about exact
locality it will be very
nice for me. Carlos

Febuary 2014; We were
lucky with the weather
and butterflies in
Caranavi lowlands, and
saw wild monkeys! In the
highlands around Coroico
we did not get many hours
of sunshine and only a
few butterflies. Had a
good trip back to Lapaz
and got sunshine on top
of 4671 meters above sea
level, got great images
and video of the little
pieride; Pierphulia
nysias, however,
in high winds.
