Observations and Comments |
Larvae of this species have been collected at Las Palmas and at Plot 173. Scoble (1999) listed viridiflava Dognin (1918) as a synonym of Eois goodmani Schaus (1913). The type locality for goodmani is Juan Viñas, Costa Rica, whereas the type locality of viridiflava is Monte Tolima, Colombia (3200m). Based on these disjunct distributions, we provisionally list viridiflava as a valid species. |
