Agathia quinaria Moore
Agathia quinaria Moore, 1867, Proc. zool. Soc. Lond. 1867: 39.
Agathia hilarata latilimes Prout, 1916, Novit. zool. 23: 20, syn. n.
Diagnosis
See Agathia laetata Fabricius and diagnosis of Agathia largita sp. n.
Taxonomic Notes
The male genitalia of latilimes resemble those of quinaria rather than those of hilarata Guenée (see illustrations in Holloway & Sommerer (1984)) and therefore this taxon should be treated as the Sundanian race of quinaria. The ventral process of the valve apex is more acutely produced in typical Javan latilimes than in Bornean specimens.
Geographical range
N.E. Himalaya; Sundaland (ssp. latilimes).
Habitat preference
The species is encountered infrequently in lowland forest, with one specimen being taken at 1000m on G. Mulu.
