Odonestis germari Sergeev & Zolotuhin

Taxonomic Note

A new species related to O. schalicteta Tams (Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra, Nias) has been described from Borneo, O. germari Sergeev & Zolotuhin (2010). A Sumatran specimen of germari was illustrated as schalicteta by Holloway & Bender (1990; plate 7: 10). The ground colour is distinctly more blackish red than in schalicteta, and the forewing apex is more strongly produced and falcate. The hindwing margin is straight to slightly concave centrally. The male genitalia are illustrated in the original description. Single specimens have been taken at 1200m on G. Trus Madi and at 800m, 15km N.E. of Loksado in Kalimantan.
