The white points on the grey colouration distinguish this species from other Heteropsis species.
Heteropsis andasibe was (re-)named in 2003 by Dr. David Lees from the Department of Zoology of the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom.
I met David in Madagascar in January 2014 during his research work in Andasibe-Mantadia NP and had the pleasure to spent a few days together..
David has extensive field research experience in Madagascar and is considered the leading expert on Madagascar butterflies.
