About Ministrymon janevicroy Glassberg, 2013
Ministrymon janevicroy Glassberg, 2013, commonly known as Vicroy's ministreak, is a species of butterfly in the family Lycaenidae. Its distribution range extends from southern Texas in the United States, south to Guanacaste, Costa Rica. There are also isolated disjunct populations on the Venezuelan islands of Curaçao and Isla Margarita. This species inhabits dry deciduous forests and dry scrub areas. For both males and females of this species, the forewing length measures 9.1 mm. Adult individuals resemble the related species Ministrymon azia, but can be distinguished by their olive green eye color, in contrast to the dark brown or black eyes of M. azia. In Texas, adult butterflies have been recorded in flight from January through August. The species' larvae are thought to possibly feed on plant species belonging to the genera Mimosa and Leucaena.
