Diagnosis

The forewing markings are obscure, diffuse, greenish but of the extensively reticulate type, seen more clearly in blue in the next species.

The female genitalia are short, broad, heavily but irregularly sclerotised throughout, with no really clear distinction of a ductus (possibly very short) or a praebursa.

Geographical range

Java (slide 1595), Borneo (slide 1594).

Habitat preference

The only Bornean specimen is a female from G. Kinabalu, collected by Waterstradt. There are no more precise data.
