♂ (in USNM)

Teulisna divisa Walker comb. n.

Hypoprepia divisa Walker, 1862, J. Linn. Soc. (Zool.), 6: 102.

Diagnosis

The facies is somewhat Asura- like as in nebulosa, but the grey streaks are in the spaces rather than on the veins, and the central band is narrower, evenly curved rather than zig-zag.

Habitat Preference

Older material is from lowland Sarawak and from G. Kinabalu. More recently, two specimens have been taken at about 1620m on G. Kinabalu and a third at 1000m on G. Mulu. There is material in the USNM from 1530m on G. Kinabalu, just south of Kundasang.
