Similar Species: Only two described species in the genus Dryadaula found north of Mexico. The other species, 0307.1 D. terpsichorella is very different. However, there appear to be several undescribed species in this genus based on DNA barcoded specimens at BOLD. All identifications should be considered tentative. Pinned specimens of related species. (Hint: select View by Region on the related species page.) Synonymy: visaliella (Chambers, 1873) (Cyane) vesaliella Forbes, 1923 (Dryadaula) missp.
