Description

Manerebia trimaculata (Hewitson, 1870)

Lymanopoda trimaculata Hewitson, 1870: 159. Type locality: Ecuador, Morona-Santiago Province, St. Rosario. Syntype male: NHML [examined].

Remarks. Various sequenced individuals identified as M. trimaculata form a widely polytomic clade among morphologically noticeably different subspecies of M. inderena and M. undulata Pyrcz & Hall, 2006. According to BI and GMYC methods (Figs. 12, 15), the M. trimaculata complex contains three putative species that are morphologically different, and indeed some are sympatric, but based on ML and bPTP analyses (Figs. 13,14), the complex was not resolved and it might represent a single species with high phenotypic variation, and the genetic distances are not high (between 1–3%). Since there are still a number of questions to be resolved, we refrain at this stage from making any taxonomic changes regarding these taxa until more data are available. This issue will be discussed alonside the status of the subspecies of M. inderena in a forthcoming paper.
