Astraptes creteus ssp, Anchayacu, Durango, San Francisco, Pedro Vicente Maldonado.


but in this same area we also collected Astraptes creteus crilla   https://www.cotacachi.eu/en/fiche-papillon/025-Hesperiidae/001-Eudaminae/_/055-Astraptes/115-creteus/crilla   the sympatry of two ssp being unlikely, they should rather be two forms or two different species ?
