Callicore is a genus of nymphalid butterfly found in the Neotropical Ecozone. This genus, like some related ones, was formerly lumped together as the paraphyletic ''Catagramma'' assemblage. Species in this genus are commonly called eighty-eights or numberwings like the related genera ''Diaethria'' and ''Perisama'', in reference to the characteristic patterns on the hindwing undersides of many. In ''Callicore'', the pattern consists of bluish dots surrounded by black and looks more like "αB" or "8°", though some members of this genus have a completely different arrangement of dots. The forewing undersides vary little between species, being black with one or two broad orange-yellow bands in the basal part and one thin and one very faint yellowish band near the apex. ''C. hydarnis'' is listed as endangered species in Minas Gerais, Brazil. ==Species== Listed alphabetically within species groups.〔(''Callicore'' ), funet.fi〕 The ''atacama'' species-group: * ''Callicore atacama'' (Hewitson, 1852) – Yellow-banded Eighty-eight * ''Callicore felderi'' (Hewitson, 1864) – 8-spot Numberwing * ''Callicore hesperis'' (Guérin, 1844) – Hesperis Eighty-eight The ''cyllene'' species-group: * ''Callicore pygas'' (Godart, ()) – Pygas Eighty-eight The ''cynosura'' species-group: * ''Callicore astarte'' (Cramer, 1779) – Astarte Eighty-eight * ''Callicore cynosura'' (Doubleday & Hewitson, 1847) – Cynosura Eighty-eight * ''Callicore excelsior'' (Hewitson, 1857) – Excelsior Eighty-eight or Superb Numberwing * ''Callicore ines'' (Hopp, 1922) * ''Callicore sorana'' (Godart, 1832) – Sorana Eighty-eight The ''hydarnis'' species-group *''Callicore hydarnis'' (Godart, ()) The ''hydaspes'' species-group: * ''Callicore brome'' (Doyère, ()) – Four-spotted Eighty-eight * ''Callicore hydaspes'' (Drury, 1782) – Hydaspes Eighty-eight * ''Callicore lyca'' (Doubleday, ()) – Aegina Numberwing * ''Callicore maronensis'' (Oberthür, 1916) The ''pitheas'' species-group: * ''Callicore cyclops'' Staudinger, 1891) * ''Callicore pitheas'' (Latreille, 1811) – Two-eyed Eighty-eight The ''texa'' species-group: * ''Callicore texa'' (Hewitson, 1854) – Texa Eighty-eight The ''tolima'' species-group: * ''Callicore eunomia'' (Hewitson, 1853) – Eunomia Eighty-eight * ''Callicore hystaspes'' (Fabricius, 1781) – Hystaspes Eighty-eight * ''Callicore tolima'' (Hewitson, 1851) – Blue-and-orange Eighty-eight 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Callicore」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
