Is this species a synonym of Chorinea octauius? Posted 7 years ago

  Not sure. I got this species ID from a book published in 1970: Butterflies of Trinidad & Tobago by Malcolm Barcant. Posted 7 years ago

    Ok, I think it is based on this reference:

    But still not 100% sure. Posted 7 years ago

      I'm not sure what you want to do. You can upload another photo from the upload page the way you have uploaded the others. There you should be able to drag and drop. When it is done you open it again, copy the address and paste it in a comment or description to link the two. Posted 7 years ago
