wingspan : very variable, 60/80 mm
all the butterflies known as Taygetis andromeda (Cramer 1779) are now distributed between three species, Taygetis laches (Fabricius 1793), and two undescribed (?) species, sp n°1 and sp n° 2 (KRW pers.com.)
It is impossible to tell sp 1 from sp 2, and for laches, the commonest species, you can identify only males from their androconias, which means you need a dorsal view, which means you can't identify pictures of live butterflies.
and its wings underside is extremely variable.
common on the Eastern limits of the NP, at elevations of approximately 1000 m.
the bottom pictures certainly show a clear majority of Taygetis laches, but maybe also some specimens of species 1 and 2.
