Gelastocera viridimacula Warren
Gelastocera viridimacula Warren, 1916, Novit. zool., 23: 218.
Gelastocera viridimacula Warren; Kobes, 1997: 79.
Diagnosis
The facies is somewhat similar to that of Beara but distinguished by the white-edged green patch at the base of the forewing costa.
Taxonomic Notes
This species rests uneasily in Gelastocera, as features of the male genitalia, as with the facies, are closer to those of Beara; however, the aedeagus vesica is much larger with diverticula and scobination, and the female has a large bursa that is also extensively finely scobinate.
Geographical range
Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra, Borneo.
Habitat preference
The species is rare, all four records in recent surveys being from lowland dipterocarp forest from 30m to 450m (Ulu Temburong and Labi in Brunei; at the foot of G. Mulu in Sarawak).
