Neominois carmen (original) (raw)

Neominois carmen, the Joboni satyr, is a species of butterfly in the family Nymphalidae. It is found in north-eastern Mexico, at least from the Maderas del Carmen in north-western Coahuila, to the area west of Linares in southern Nuevo León. The habitat consists of open areas at the beginning of pine-oak woodland. Adults have been recorded on wing from early June to late July, suggesting one generation per year. The larvae probably feed on Piptochaetium and Bouteloua species.
