Pseudophyllinae Mimetica spp. Probably 3 species of this genus occur at La Selva. The most common seems to be M. incisa . All species show extreme color polymorphism and sexual dimorphism.
Males are always smaller and their wings are more deeply incised.
They can be seen at night, feeding on the foliage of a number of trees and shrubs, including species of the family Solanaceae. The genus is in the need of a taxonomic revision.
