Diaethria neglecta is a species of butterfly of the genus Diaethria . It was described by Osbert Salvin in 1869. It is found in Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela. All Diaethria species are commonly called eighty-eights because of the patterns on the hindwing undersides.
The wingspan of Diaethria neglecta is about 38 millimetres (1.5 in).
The uppersides is black, marked on the forewings with a diagonal band of metallic blue or green. The colour is repeated on the hindwings in the form of a submarginal band. The hindwing undersides pattern consists of black dots surrounded by concentric white and black lines, and looks like the number "89" or "98".
