Perisama paralicia Fruhstorfer, 1916

= Perisama paralicia bonita Attal & Crosson-du-Cormier, 1997, syn. nov.

Perisama paralicia is a relatively rare species, therefore it is difficult to fully appreciate the actual its geographic individual variability. The specimens we examined differ in size of the FWV red discal patch and width of the HWD marginal ashen band. P. paralicia bonita Attal & Crosson-du-Cormier (1997) described from northern Ecuador differs from the nominate, Peruvian subspecies in the smaller size of the basal red patch and slightly narrower HWD ashen band. Simultaneously, the above authors have stated that the same characters can be observed in the nominate subspecies, as an example of extreme individual variation, which makes the validity the subspecies bonita doubtful. Moreover, our research confirmed the presence of bonita morphotype in central Ecuador and northern Peru (San Martin province). Therefore, P. paralicia bonita is considered here a synonym of P. paralicia.
