Trismarcha voeltzlowi
Jacobi, 1917
Trismarcha voeltzlowi
Jacobi 1917: 525
. (Tulear, Southwest
Madagascar
)
Remarks.—A ferruginous species with silvery pile on the abdomen. Females are larger than males (body length about
18 mm
vs.
12 mm
, wingspan about
44 mm
vs.
35 mm
). The piceous marks in the mesonotal sigillae are reduced to the submedian sigillae, sometimes only the anterior of the submedian sigillae or missing, in this species.
Jacobi (1917)
differentiated his species by the wider hind wing and more strongly bent cubitus anterior vein. The smaller body size of this species can also distinguish it quickly from most other
Trismarcha
.
Distribution.—The species is known only from
Madagascar
(
Metcalf 1963a
).
Jacobi (1917)
reported the species from Tulear in southwestern
Madagascar
.
