Pierella lamia colombiana Constantino & Salazar, 2007 [syn. nov.], p. 173���174, figs 5���7. Diagnosis. Pierella chalybaea can be distinguished from P. l a m i a by the less prominent ocelli on DHW that is obscured by the dark background, and in many cases the white pupil in CuA 1 -CuA 2 is not evident. This pupil is always strongly marked in P. l am i a. Androconial patch is characterized by the weak rounded dark central area (Fig. 30). Female genitalia presents a well-developed, straight posterior aphophysis similar to P. keithbrowni sp. nov., but the ductus bursae is sclerotized and approximately 1.6 times the length of corpus bursae, and the paired signa are located on the ventral side. Ostium bursae with a sclerotized projection out from the ductus bursae (Figs 50���51). Distribution (Fig. 62). Pierella chalybaea is distributed in Brazilian and Chacoan sub-regions, from Colombia to Bolivia (Constantino 1995; Willmott et al 2011; Willmott & Hall 2014; Petit 2014) and North and Midwest Brazil (Roraima, Amazonas, Par��, Acre, Rond��nia, Mato Grosso and Goi��s), apparently associated with both low altitudinal regions (100���900 m) (Brown 1948) and high rainfall levels between 2000���5000 mm /year (Brown & Ab���Saber 1979). Host plant. Unknown. Remarks. Godman (1905) described Pierella chalybaea based on two males and one female collected by the American naturalist Herbert H. Smith on his expeditions to Chapada dos Guimar��es, Mato Grosso, Brazil. This material is deposited at the NHM collection with lectotype and paralectotypes��� labels determined by M. Clifton in 1968, but these designations were never published. Here, they are designated: Lectotype male hereby designated with the following labels (separated by forward slash symbols): Jan/ Chapada, Matto Grosso, H. H. Smith/♀/ B.M. TYPE No Rh. 2512, Pirella chalybaea / Godman & Salvin Coll. 1904 ��� 1./ BMNH (E)# 781092. Paralectotype male with the following labels (separated by forward slash symbols): July/ Chapada, Matto Grosso, H. H. Smith/ Pirella rhea chalybaea Godman, det. M. Clifton 1968 / BMNH (E)# 781082. Paralectotype female with the following labels (separated by forward slash symbols): Jan/ Chapada, Matto Grosso, H. H. Smith/♀/ B.M. TYPE No Rh. 2513, Pirella chalybaea / Godman & Salvin Coll. 1904 ��� 1./ BMNH (E)# 781099. Brown (1948) considered P. chalybaea as a subspecies of Pierella rhea (currently P. lamia chalybaea), but the marked differences in the female genitalia and the males androconial patch supports the decision in reinstate this taxa. Haetera lamia f. columbina Kr��ger, 1925 was described from Colombia, [Meta, Up��n], 1000 m and synonymized with Pierella lamia chalybaea by Lamas (2004). In fact, the illustration of the type specimen (Warren et al. 2014) confirms its identity as a synonym of P. chalybaea stat. rest. Salazar & Constatino (2007) described P. lamia colombiana from Colombia, Peru, Ecuador and Brazil, based on the absence of the steely blue reflections on the dorsal hind wing. In addition, the authors discussed about the allopatric distribution of P. lamia colombiana and P. lamia chalybaea, the latter occurring in the savannahs and lowlands of the Orinoco river in Colombia and Venezuela, and in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil. The study of 132 specimens revealed that the steely blue reflections are variable among the specimens of P. chalybaea stat. rest. An examined female from Benjamin Constant (Amazonas, Brazil) that is almost 20 km distant from the type locality of P. lamia colombiana (Let��cia, Amazonas, Colombia), shows the same genitalia morphological pattern of specimens from Mato Grosso (considered as P. lamia chalybaea by Salazar & Constantino 2007).
