Metisella meninx

The Marsh Sylph (''Metisella meninx'') is a butterfly of the Hesperiidae family. It is endemic to the wet vleis of highland grassland in northern KwaZulu-Natal, Mpumalanga, Gauteng, the northern part of the Orange Free State and the extreme east of the North West Province. It has become extinct in many areas close to Johannesburg due to building developments.
The wingspan is 26–28 mm for males and 27–29 for females. Adults are on wing from December to March (with a peak from January to February). There is one extended generation per year.〔Woodhall, S. Field Guide to Butterflies of South Africa, Cape Town: Struik Publishers, 2005.〕 Both sexes feed from flowers, those recorded including ''Scabiosa columbaria'', ''Persicaria attenuata'', ''Veronica anagallis-aquatica'' and ''Conyza podocephala''. Males occasionally drink from damp spots with decaying vegetation.〔(Afrotropical Butterflies: Hesperiidae - Subfamily Heteropterinae )〕
The larvae feed on Poaceae marsh grass species, including ''Leersia hexandra''.
