Resumen
El comportamiento de asambleas o congregaciones en gran número es típico de zonas cálidas. En Misiones este fenómeno es muy notable. En este trabajo se presenta una lista de 324 especies de lepidópteros pertenecientes a 9 familias, hallados en asambleas diurnas sobre distintos nutrientes (sales, frutos, fecas) en varios lugares dentro de la provincia de Misiones, a lo largo de casi veinte años. La gran mayoría corresponde a mariposas diurnas (314) y solo 10 a especies de tres familias de Heterocera. Las especies posaron mayormente sobre sales minerales (290) que en excrementos (107) y frutos pasados (30). Las familias con más representantes fueron Nymphalidae y Hesperiidae. Se destacan Antigonus minor, Pachyneuria herophile, Alera metallica y Euphyes fumata (Hesperiidae), las cuales no tenían registros previos para Argentina, junto con Dardarina daridaeus (Hesperiidae), la cual no contaba con citas en Misiones.
The behavior in butterflies of mud-puddling in large numbers is typical of tropical regions. In Misiones, Argentina, this phenomenon is very noticeable. In this paper, I present a list of 324 species of Lepidoptera from 9 families observed at diurnal aggregations at different nutrients (salts, fruits, feces) over a period of nearly twenty years at various locations within the province of Misiones. The vast majority of species are butterflies (314), with only 10 other species from three families of Heterocera. The majority of the species fed at salts (290), feces (107) or fruits (30). The families with the greatest number of species were Nymphalidae and Hesperiidae. Notable observations included Antigonus minor, Pachyneuria herophile, Alera metallica and Euphyes fumata (Hesperiidae), which had no previous records for Argentina, along with Dardarina daridaeus (Hesperiidae), which had no previous records in Misiones.
