Telchin evalthe quadrata (Rothschild, 1919)

Comments.

This subspecies was named from specimens collected in Peru and Ecuador and differs from other subspecies, mainly T. evalthe evalthoides (Strand 1913), by subtle differences in the external appearance (Rothschild 1919; Lamas 1995; González et al. 2013b). The species is a member of a group that deserves a full morphological and molecular study to clarify its taxonomic composition.
