Alcis bornemaculata Sato

Diagnosis

Sato (2005a) has provided full illustration of A. bornemaculata and other species in an extensive review of two complexes in the genus Alcis Curtis. This species resembles maculata closely, but the black bands of the forewing are less spotted with white patches, particularly medially, and the hindwing is almost immaculate basal to the border. The ampullate structure in the centre of the valve of the male genitalia is upcurved and unusually crinkled.
