Mopala orma (Plötz, 1879) View in CoL
This widespread but rather rare skipper is usually found deep inside good quality forest with dense undergrowth. It should be crepuscular as even the disturbed specimens do not fly much during the day, definitely not spontaneously. Two specimens of the species were recorded during the most recent visit in September 2016.
