Corades enyo

Common 1400-2700 m., mostly below 2300 m. Puddles, attracted to bait. I'm not sure which subspecies occur(s) in Cusco.

Similar species: VHW less uniform than C. iduna, with more conspicuous dark diagonal lines; VFW and D very different. See also C. sareba.

Corades iduna marginalis

Fairly common 2700-3200 m. Puddles; attracted to bait. Other subspecies may occur in NW Cusco, but I believe all my records are marginalis.

Similar species: D pattern distinctive; VHW similar to C. enyo and C. sareba but paler and much more uniform.

Corades argentata

Fairly common 2000-2300 m. Puddles and attracted to bait.

Similar species: Most similar to C. pannonia albomaculata but usually has a more strongly marked white post-discal line VHW; VFW of pannonia lacks orange markings shown by argentata, and pannonia has white apical spots DFW.

Corades sareba

Fairly common(?) 2400-2700 m. Attracted to bait and mud. I'm not sure which subspecies occur(s) in Cusco; individuals from the Manu Road (eg. from Pillahuata, shown below) resemble the nominate, while some furher north (eg. from Alto Combamayo, shown below) have virtually no reddish on VFW and look more like fusciplaga.

Similar species: Dark marginal areas (sometimes narrow) VHW distinguish it from C. enyo and C. iduna. C. medeba is darker and greyer overall on VHW, with a very different VFW.

Corades medeba medeba

Common 1350-2400 m. Puddles and attracted to bait.

Similar species: VHW darker than C. sareba and C. melania; VFW pattern distinctive, although somewhat similar to C. cybele semiplena (I have no Cusco records) which has a longer HW tail, and details of orange on VFW differ.

Corades melania

Uncommon(?) at 2700 m., probably somewhat higher and lower. Puddles, attracted to bait.

Similar species: Most similar to C. medeba but VHW paler and more uniform, and VFW lacks orange.

Corades ulema

Fairly common 2000-2800 m. Puddles; attracted to bait. I'm not sure which subspecies occur(s) in Cusco.

Similar species: None; C. tripunctata, with smaller submarginal spots VFW, is only known from Northern and Central Peru (south to Junin; it could occur in NW Cusco).
