Il s'agit de l'hespérie (papillon) Atrytone dukesi. «Hespérie», nom populaire réservé à une des deux sous-familles de papillons (les Pyrginae et les Hesperiinae) comprend plusieurs genres, dont «Atrytone». Par contre toute hespérie ne constitue pas nécessairement un «skipper». Il y a des hespéries qui sont rendues en anglais par «dusky wings», d'autres par «cloudy wings», encore d'autres par «sooty wings». À l'intérieur du genre «Atrytone» il existe plusieurs espèces dont «Atrytone arogos, Atrytone logan, Atrytone arpa, et Atrytone dukesi». 1, record 1, French, - hesp%C3%A9rie%20de%20Duke
