Felder & R. Felder, 1867) (type locality Colombia: Bogota). This new species keys to “ <i>Astraptes alector hopfferi</i> ” C.14.26(a) in Evans (1952) but differs from it by being darker beneath, with a smaller ventral forewing pale tornal area that is overscaled with brown and does not reach the discal cell, reduced pale overscaling along the forewing costa typical of <i>T. hopfferi</i>, and a basal white triangle on the ventral hindwing that is partly overscaled with brown and with a less sharp and more diffuse edge separating it from the brown ground color. Due to the cryptic nature of this species, most reliable identification is achieved by DNA, and a combination of the following base pairs is diagnostic in the nuclear genome: aly671.37.7:A72C, aly671.37.7:T75C, aly3512.7.2:T60C, aly172. 6.16:T36C, aly29286.1.3:G96A, aly60.18.6:C48C (not T), aly412.4.19:G108G (not A), aly216.44.7:C159C (not T), aly390.23.3:G60G (not C), aly378.37.11:G96G (not C); and COI barcode: A43T, T85C, C271T, A289G, A322A, A466G, T646T.</p><p>Barcode sequence of the holotype.
