Manerebia lamasi Pyrcz & Willmott, 2006 , n. stat.

Manerebia satura lamasi Pyrcz & Willmott, 2006: 47 . Type locality; Alfonso Ugarte , Cordillera del Cóndor, Amazonas, Peru. Holotype male: MUSM [examined].

Remarks. BI ( Fig. 12 ), ML ( Fig. 13 ), the species-delimitation methods, and genetics distances analysis (Supplementary material 2) indicate that the sequences of this taxon cluster in a single well-differentiated, long branch, and to represent the sister species to M. navarrae Adams & Bernard, 1979 , from the Serranía de Perija in northern Colombia. Based these data we raise it to a specific rank. Manerebia lamasi n. stat. was originally described as a subspecies of Manerebia satura based on similar male genitalia and wing colour patterns. M. lamasi n. stat. is known so far exclusively from the Cordillera del Condór.
