oliverkomarDescription
Las hojas y tallos son asperos al tocarlos. Este es una hierba baja, creciendo en el cauce del río Yeguare, sobre substrato rocoso y arenoso.
Notas para alumnos:
Esta planta es un ejemplo de una hierba (planta herbácea). Las hierbas son plantas vasculares que no tienen tallos persistentes leñosos arriba del suelo. Suelen ser anuales.
- Es una sola planta, pero para poder documentarla bien, incluí bastantes fotos, cada una mostrando otras detalles (flores, botones, tallos, hojas, lado arriba y abajo, vista de toda la planta, y comparación de la flor con mis dedos y pulgar, que le da una medida de referencia para entender el tamaño). Esto es una buena práctica, especialmente con plantas.
- ¿Estas de acuerdo con la identificación? Para comparar mi reporte con varias fotos de referencia de esta especie, utiliza el botón de COMPARAR (o compare) abajo, a la par de mi propuesta para la especie. Si estas de acuerdo con la identificación, busca un botón verde para "seleccionarla", y así indicar que estas de acuerdo. Si no estas seguro, mejor no opinar.

I got a great view of it flying around a lake. It started in a tree in the middle of the lake for a long time with its wings open, probably drying them off. It had a light colored breast and shoulders like this one https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/42021384

Interesting butterfly. First thing I noticed was very small size. When I captured it, the colors seemed off. It has some attributes that are Canadian-type 1) very small size, 2) more blue on the black field of the dorsal HW (at least I’m not used to seeing ETS with much blue here), 3) straighter division between yellow and blue fields of ventral HW, 4?) the blue field here looks REALLY weird to me… There are also signs that this seems to have some Eastern-type genetics as well 1) black border on the inner margin of dorsal HW is not particularly broad (I’ll admit I did not take close note of this while in hand and I’m going mostly off the photo which honestly has that bit of the wing slightly bowed away (not flat) so this might not necessarily reflect how this individual actually was), 2) the yellow border on the ventral FW margin is intermediate with nearly continuous yellow with some very narrow black along the veins but then breaking into spots nearer the anal angle, and 3) the spots on the ventral HW are much more crescent-shaped than rectangular. All told, this seems like a decent Canadian Tiger candidate but it also seems to have some Eastern Tiger heritage.
