Diagnosis:
This species differs from all other congeners by the characteristic pecten of the hindwing (Kawabe 1989). It is similar to
S. bryana
(Felder & Rogenhofer, 1874)
in the male genitalia, but it can be distinguished by the longer and slenderer socius and the trapezoidal shape of the ventral prominence of cucullus, with a prominent inwardly curved angle bearing a long tuft of seta.
Specimens examined:
53, 2Ƥ, Bavi, Hanoi province,
19.VII–5.VII. 2010
(

Host plants:
Unknown.
Distribution:
Vietnam
,
Thailand
.
Remarks:
Razowski (2009) reported that specimens from Sapa, Fansipan Mts, differ externally from specimens from
Thailand
in having a more uniform grayish green forewing with less distinct markings.
