Diagnosis
. Forewing length is
12–13 mm
in males and
14–15 mm
in females. Externally,
A. sublucana
resembles
A. tairadiata
sp. n.
and red forms of
A. delineata
, but can be distinguished by its slightly narrower forewings, intense crimson ground color of fore- and hindwings (in
A. tairadiata
sp. n.
and
A. delineata
the wings are brick red, red or tiger orange), and more elongated radial black strips in the postmedial forewing area. The differences between
A. sublucana
and
A. trangchim
sp. n.
are listed in the diagnosis of the latter species.
