The independence of the Purana carmente species group was also brought up by Lee (2009b) . The new Purana species described below belongs to this species group. Two of the other Purana species of Mindanao, Purana nana Lee, 2009 and Purana crassinotata Lee, 2015 , are included in the Purana abdominalis species group proposed by Lee (2009a) . Lee (2009a) suggested Purana guttularis (Walker, 1858) be placed in the Purana ubina species group, but no male specimens have been confirmed. Its type specimen, which is a female, seems close to Purana kpaworensis Boulard, 2007 , which was placed in the Purana tigrina species group by Lee (2009a) , considering the similarities in fore wing venation. However, the species group placements of P. guttularis and P. kpaworensis need further study.
