These are butterflies in the family Hesperiidae that I have recorded on Isla Colon. Each specimen includes collecting data and observations I have made over years of visits to the island.

Field notes from Isla Colon:

I have only seen this species on one occasion on Isla Colon, when I found several females perching on foliage along a paved road on the north end of the island. It has not appeared before or since.
