Daedalma adamsi
Andrew V. Z. Brower
Introduction
A rather rare and unusual Daedalma species, known only from male specimens. The species occurs in cloud forest on the eastern slope of the Andes in central Peru.Characteristics
Superficially similar to males of D. eliza, but with male genitalia so distinct as to suggest that this species is sister to the remainder of the genus.References
