wingspan : 43/50 mm
we saw Leptophobia philoma at Quebrada Cugusha, 1700 m, and also at the North and Southern limits of the Park. it is a butterfly which lives in Ecuador and Peru (d’Abrera 1981).
in spite of the official position we consider philoma and subargentea to be valid species as both fly throughout the NP, apparently without any cross-breeding.
