Name

Oenomaus jauffreti Faynel & Moser – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

Distribution, habitat, and remarks

This species inhabits wet lowland forest. It is recorded from French Guiana, eastern Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil (PA, MT).

New material examined

Ecuador.– 1♂: Pastaza Province, 32 km S. of Puyo, 20–21.X.1996, 1000 m, Robert C. Busby leg., gen. prep. CF n°346 (RCB). Peru.– 1♂: LO, Agua Blanca, 0356/7328, 130 m, 10.XI.2005, J.J. Ramírez (MUSM). 2♀: JU, vic. Satipo, c. 800 m, Villa Esperanza, c. 11°16'S, 74°15'W, V.1983, leg. M. Callegari (USNM) ; LO, Cerros de Contamana, El Indio, 200 m, 10.IX.1986, P. Hocking (MUSM). Bolivia.– 1♂: Río Songo, 750 m, coll. Fassl, Genitalia No. 2002: 5♂ R.K. Robbins (SMF).

Intraspecific variation

As noted by Faynel and Moser (2008), Oenomaus jauffreti is a variable species, especially ventrally. For example, the VHW basal spot in cell Sc+R1 is large and mostly white in French Guiana; is small, black with a white centered pupil in Brazil (MT), and is large, with black and white scales in Ecuador. The only element which seems to be stable is the presence of a white spot on the basal side of VHW cell Rs-M1.

Female

Females were associated with males by their characteristic ventral wing pattern (Faynel and Moser 2008). Six specimens of Oenomaus jauffreti have been barcoded (four males and two females), including three male paratypes (CF-LYC-028, CF-LYC-029, CF-LYC-030) and one female paratype (CF-LYC-032). The six barcodes show 1.2% divergence.
