FIGURE 48. Hybrid #25 (dorsal, ventral). Brazil: Santa Catarina, Joinville, 1981, leg. H. Miers. Collection "Para" ((Museu Paraense Emilio Goeldi?). Interpreted by Mallet et al. (2007) as an F1 of H. ethilla narcaea (Fig. 39) x H. besckei (Fig. 46). Herbert W. Miers was a serious amateur lepidopterist in Joinville, which lends more credibility to this specimen's authenticity than the vague provenance of the previous two. It is notable that this specimen, as well as the next two, are from the same museum.
