Female of P. oroanna - There are two Paraspiculatus species, what possess entirely brown female wing dorsa: P. orobia (Hewitson, 1867) and P. vossoroca Bálint et Moser, 2001. Comparing to P. oroanna these taxa are more distinctive than P. hannelore Bálint et Moser, 2001 and P. orobiana (Druce, 1912) having blue females, therefore I presume that the female of oroanna is also blue dorsally. Notes on "Thecla orobiana cosmophila" - The female of P. orobiana was described as "Thecla orobiana forma $ cosmophila nov." by Tessmann (1928: 125, pi. 5, Fig. 8) on the basis of a single female specimen (= holotype) taken between La Paz and La Salud, Eastern Peru. Tessmann stated that the ventral pattern of the wings was identical with that of the male. This phenomenon is general in the genus Paraspiculatus, therefore I am on the opinion that the holotype specimen of cosmophila is correctly associated with the taxon "Thecla orobiana", and the orobiana female described by Hewitson (1867: 103) represent the female of P. orobia or one of the undescribed relatives superficially close to P. orobia and documented from the Amazonas region (d'Abrera 1995: 1194, 1195 and Johnson & Constantino 1997,1. a). This error of Hewitson resulted that Tessmann thought that the female of P. orobiana was brown, therefore he emphatically stated, that cosmophila is an individual female aberration, thus according to the Article 45.5 of the International Trust of Zoological Nomenclature (1999: 49-50) the name cosmophila is not available under the authorship of Tessmann. Subsequently Bridges (1988:11.108) listed the name as an available subjective junior synonym of "Thecla (New World Eumaeini) orobiana Hewitson, [1867], 1863-1878" referring to the synonymic list authored by Comstock & Huntington (1859-1964) (Bridges 1988:1.91). The name cosmophila did not became available via Bridges, as his action was neither nomen-
