在过去的世纪里，鳞翅目昆虫学家一直对Adelpha Hiabner属感到困惑，试图发现这个新热带区蝶类中100多种蝶类的秘密特征或特征组合，从而对它们进行令人满意的分类。已经尝试了几种方法（Godman & Salvin，1884，1901; Fruhstorfer，1907;福布斯，未出版的手稿）：翅型（包括上侧和下侧）、翅脉序、生殖器以及这些的各种组合。如果一个人试图协调所有可用的信息，结果是希望渺茫。因此，最明显的一组特征（翅型）传统上被用于分类;其他似乎混淆情况的特征组（生殖器，幼虫，蛹）在很大程度上被忽视了。需要一种新的策略，既要评估已经调查过的不同字符组的可靠性，又要重新搜索被忽视的信息源。我的研究目的是回顾已知的Adelpha物种的未成熟阶段，并根据这些信息以及我自己在1978年到现在在巴拿马的观察，对物种关系进行推测。
For the past century, lepidopterists have puzzled over the genus Adelpha Hiabner, inan attempt to discover the secret character or combination of characters which might leadto a satisfying classification of the 100 or more butterfly speciesincluded in this large neotropical group. Several approaches have been tried (Godman & Salvin, 1884, 1901; Fruhstorfer, 1907; Forbes, un-published manuscript): wing pattern (both upperside and lower-side), wing venation, genitalia, andvarious combinations of these. If one attempts to coordinate all the information available, the result is a hopelesstangle. As a result, themost obvious set of characters (wing pattern) traditionally has been used in classification; other character groups (genitalia, larvae, pupae) which appear to confuse the situation have been largely ignored. A new strategy is needed, one which would both evaluate the reliability ofthe differentgroups of characters already surveyed, and search anew for overlooked sources of information. It was the purpose of my researchto review what is known of the immature stages of Adelpha species and, based upon that information plus my own observations made in Panama between 1978 and the present, to make speculations regarding species relationships.
