Napaea sylva described in Cremna
Andrew V. Z. BrowerIntroduction
A widespread but rare lowland neotropical species occuring in Amazonia and the Guianas. Individual males seem to perch in preferred territories on hilltops, and when collected are often "replaced" by a new individual in the same spot the next day (Hall, 2005).References
