said #Harry_Pavulaan, director of the International Lepidoptera Research.

These butterflies were first noticed by researcher #Ronald_Gatrel in 1985, but the species was not officially named at that time. In 2018, #Pavulaan went to #South_Carolina to study them in detail. After #Iryna's death, he dedicated his scientific work to her and gave the #Ukrainian family collectible butterfly specimens.
