BALINT, Zsolt. FIVE CHAPTERS ON ANNAMARIA COLUMBIA WITH THE DESCRIPTION OF A NEW GENUS (LEPIDOPTERA: LYCAENIDAE: EUMAEINI). Bol. Cient. Mus. Hist. Nat. Univ. Caldas [online]. 2009, vol.13, n.1, pp.75-82. ISSN 0123-3068.

The genus Airamanna gen. n. (type species: Annamaria columbia Bálint, 2005) is established on the basis of characters provided by male ventral forewing surface (blue reflector and dorsal androconia) and sexually dimorphic ventral wing colouration and pattern. The genus contains three species, which can be distinguished on the basis of male dorsal forewing androconia: A. columbia (Bálint, 2005), new combination, with extensive dorsal forewing postbasal and postdiscal androconia (Columbia); A. rhapsodia (Bálint, 2005), new combination, with extensive hindwing postbasal androconia (Bolivia) and A. rhaptissima (Johnson, 1991), new combination, with reduced androconia in both dorsal wing surfaces (Ecuador and Peru). In Colombia A. columbia is recorded from the regions Cauca-Muchique, Nariño and Valle.
