wingspan : female 23 mm
these two butterflies could be Rhamma oxida, seen at Buenos Aires and Cotacachi.
first the set female, it is visibly different (a much wider HW black border) from the one illustrated on BoA, but the latter, on one hand comes from Costa Rica, and, on the other, was described as the type of Rhamma orosi, then, it would seem, as the type of Rhamma disjuncta, before figuring on BoA as Rhamma oxida, all that without any explanation ?
the male, below, luckily, shows a little dent at the base of the HW, which discovers some metallic blue scales on the FWUN ; several Rhamma species have blue markings under the FW, but, we think, only two have metallic blue markings at this very place : oxida and inexpectata, and, for its overall look, oxida seems a safer bet...
