Dysschema picta (Guérin-Méneville, 1844) Fig. 1 R Remarks. A sexually dimorphic species. Males show less variable wing pattern, similar to glass wing butterflies, while females have wing polychromatism and show a black yellow and orange tiger pattern. Immatures were reared by Spitz (1931) in Mikania hirsutissima and Senecio brasiliensis, and by Travassos Filho (1947) in Vernonia polyanthes (all Asteraceae). Travassos Filho (1947) made the association between males and females, and documented the polychromatism presented by females, resulting in the establishment of synonyms. Material examined. 1 male, Brazil, Santa Catarina, Hansa?; 1 male, Santa Catarina, New Bremen [Seara municipality]; 1 male, no locality.
