Eudocima talboti
(
Prout, 1922
)
(
Figs 12

Zilli
et al
. (2017)
examined old specimens allopatric from either
E. cajeta
or
E. srivijayana
collected in the eastern Indonesian islands of Seram, Halmahera, Waigeo and Numfoor. They found the forewings were broader than in those two related sexually dimorphic species, the hindwing medial patch was smaller and the inner edge of the black marginal band on vein M1 was blunter. Genitalic differences that separate this species from
E. cajeta
and
E. srivijayana
are noted above.
