Remarks.
A sexually dimorphic species, with females usually rare in collections. Females have wing patterns similar to that of D. amphissa . It differs from the latter by having a completely brown head, well-delineated spots on the prothoracic collar, and a darker background on the forewings, with semi-hyaline spots approximated. Kirby (1892) considered males and females as distinct species. Hering (1925) mistakenly associated males of D. fanatica with females of D. neda .
Material examined.
2 males, Brazil, Santa Catarina, Hansa?; 1 male, Brazil, Santa Catarina, New Bremen [ Seara municipality]; 1 female, Rio de Janeiro.
