Two species of Lema (Quasilema), L. apicalis Lacordaire, 1845 and L. reticulosa Clark, 1866 are compared and found to be identical based on morphology and behaviour, although they exhibit different colour patterns (Lema (subgenus Quasilema) apicalis Lacordaire, 1845 = Lema (Quasilema) reticulosa Clark, 1866 new synonym). These morphs are sympatric, with distribution in southern Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay, and feed and oviposit on the same host plant (Vassobia breviflora (Sendtn.) Hunz (Solanaceae)).
两种 Leima（Quasilema）物种，Leima apicalis Lacordaire, 1845 和 Leima reticulosa Clark, 1866，通过形态和行为进行比较，发现它们是相同的，尽管它们表现出不同的颜色模式（Leima (亚属 Quasilema) apicalis Lacordaire, 1845 = Leima (Quasilema) reticulosa Clark, 1866 新同义词）。这些形态是同域的，分布在巴西南部、阿根廷、巴拉圭和乌拉圭，以同一宿主植物（Vassobia breviflora (Sendtn.) Hunz（茄科））为食并产卵。
