Abstract
CORDOBA-ALFARO, Jim and MURILLO-HILLER, Luis Ricardo. Presence and distribution of two sub-species of Eurema agave (Lepidoptera, Pieridae) in Costa Rica. Rev. peru biol. [online]. 2011, vol.18, n.1, pp.133-134. ISSN 1727-9933.
Austin (1992) reported Eurema a. agave (Cramer 1775) to the Caribbean of Costa Rica. However, he actually had found E. a. millerorum, described by Bousquets & Luis-Martinez (1987) for the Caribbean of Mexico. The presence of Eurema a. agave is confirmed on this paper with information of specimens collected in the Pacific and Atlantic slopes of Costa Rica. Aspects on distribution of both subspecies are included.
Keywords : Distribution; Coliadinae; Eurema agave millerorum; allopatry; taxonomy.
