Boradiopsis aequalis Jordan comb. n.

Anarbudas aequalis Jordan, 1907, Gross-Schmett. Erde, 10: 14.

Diagnosis

The hindwing border is broad, the inner edge only slightly concave, and takes up more than half the area of the wing. The forewing has the antemedial pale zone relatively broad. In the male abdomen, the tergite is triangular but without other modification but the sternite has a rugose, concave distal margin flanked laterally by curved spines like cerci. The genitalia have a bilobed uncus that is much smaller than in the first two species. The processes of the valves are much more widely separated, the dorsal one being very slender, straight, twice as long as the more tongue-like ventral one. The saccus is rectangular with produced, splayed, distal corners. The aedeagus is similar to that of harmani.
