Abstract: Neotropical butterflies of the genus Hamadryas, noted by the emission of sound, spend much time perching on trees and are believed to be cryptically patterned and colored with respect to tree trunks and branches they use as perching sites, but the subject had not been studied previously.
The butterflies were Hamadryas amphinome (Lucas, 1853), H. februa (Godart, 1824), H. feronia (Fruhstorfer, 1916), H. glauconome (Bates, 1864) and H. guatemalena (Bates, 1864).
In the study areas, H. februa is mostly brownish, H. glauconome has a large chalky wing area, H. amphinome is bluish, and H. feronia and H. guatemalena are brown with white and light blue markings, the latter two being difficult to distinguish except for their size (Jenkins 1983, Monge-Nájera 1992).
