Yphthimoides gabriela Barbosa, Freitas and Paluch , new species

Diagnosis. Y. gabriela resembles Yphthimoides angularis (Butler, 1867) in wing shape, but can be distinguished from the latter by the presence of more developed ocelli in both dorsal and ventral hindwing surfaces (absent or simplified in Y. angularis ) and by the presence of a yellowish band crossing both wings in the ventral surface about two thirds from the base (absent in Y. angularis ) ( Figs. 1 , 2 , and 3).
