The external morphology of the immature stages of Dynamine agacles agacles (Dalman, 1823) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Biblidinae) is described, including photos, drawings, and scanning electron micrographs. Data on the adult and larval behavior are given based on observations in the host plant Dalechampia triphylla Lam. (Malpighiales : Euphorbiaceae). The results are compared and discussed with other described species of Biblidinae, allowing to make further observations on the natural history and evolution of Dynamine.
描述了 Dynamine agacles agacles(Dalman,1823)(鳞翅目:蛱蝶科:Biblidinae)未成熟阶段的外部形态,包括照片、绘图和扫描电子显微镜照片。根据在宿主植物 Dalechampia triphylla Lam.(大戟目:大戟科)上的观察,给出了成虫和幼虫行为的数据。将结果与其他描述的 Biblidinae 物种进行了比较和讨论,从而对 Dynamine 的自然历史和进化进行了进一步的观察。
