Field Notes

Description:

Hesperiidae; Hesperiinae; Telicota ancilla minda Evans, 1934. My pictures match those displayed in Philippine Lepidoptera. So, of course, this ssp. is present in Philippines, but it is additionally helpful that the presence of this ssp. is confirmed for Luzon (where I live) by Wikipedia's list of Butterflies in the Philippines - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_butterflies_of_the_Philippines#Ny….

Habitat:

Spotted in foliage at the side of a narrow track. The area is sparsely populated and mostly covered by remnants of tropical forest.
