Deudorix mpanda is a species of butterfly in the family Lycaenidae, described by Jan Kielland (1923–1995), a Norwegian lepidopterist who spent much of his life in Tanzania, in 1990. It is found in Tanzania (from the western part of the country to Mpanda District).[2][3]
Its preferred habitat is montane, typically areas at altitudes between 1,400 and 1,700m, where it inhabits forest margins and scattered stunted woodland rather than dense forest interiors.
