Dynamine gisella
Fairly common up to 900 m. Puddles, and attracted to bait.
Similar species: Male's brilliant purple-blue D is distinctive; V similar to D. postverta (I have no Cusco records, but it probably does occur) which has a pale purple wash in submarginal area VHW (especially between the eyespots), among other differences.

Dynamine tithia salpensa
Uncommon up 2350 m., perhaps at higher elevations only in drier valleys; probably widespread. Puddles, and attracted to bait.
Similar species: V very similar to D. racidula (I have no Cusco records; lowlands only?) which has a more heavily marked VHW margin; most easily distinguished by DFW, where the blue on racidula extends further out to include the area around the white discal spots.
