"Heliconius phyllis" también. Es la primera vez que veo esta Especie en pleno centro, las pocas veces fueron en zona de selva o bosque húmedo. Tal vez fue atraída por las flores del gran ingá (Inga uruguensis) y/o las plantas de mburucuyá (Passiflora coerulea) en crecimiento. Resultan raras en todo el NE de ER debido a la destrucción del ambiente y contaminación por uso abusivo de agrotóxicos. Los bordes de las alas posteriores no concuerdan, me quedan dudas. ¿Hembra?
