Hyalurga sora (Boisduval, 1870)

Fig. 2 J

Remarks.

This species exhibits sexual dimorphism, with both males and females displaying semi-translucent wing patterns. This characteristic suggests that it may engage in mimicry with glasswing Ithomiini butterflies ( Nymphalidae ), potentially forming mimetic rings. The available information is restricted to the original description and its inclusion in faunal survey lists.

Material examined.

1 male, Guatemala; 1 female, Guatemala.
