Smyrna blomfildia are seen from Peru north through Central America to Mexico and southern Texas.
    They live in tropical forests at elevations of 0 –1,200 m above sea level.
    They are seen on wing throughout the year in the tropics.
    The adults fly swiftly and usually roost singly.
    Males are somewhat territorial and perch their heads downward on tree trunks to wait for females.
   Eggs are laid singly under host plant leaves.             Caterpillars eat leaves and rest underneath them.     Adults fly swiftly and roost singly.
   The basic color of the wings is red orange in males, brown in females.
   The dorsal side of the forewings show a black apex with three white spots.
   The ventral side of hindwings has brown and tan wavy markings with a few submarginal spots.
   They have an average life expectancy as adults of approximately 14 days.
    Smyrna blomfildia are considered secure globally, though they may be quite rare in parts of their range, especially at the periphery.
    There are no management needs reported.
