J. Stumpf, D, Lauda/Koenigstein; Diagnosis. Adult ( Figs. 1–6 ). Wingspan: male 49–52 mm , female. 58–60 mm . Head and patagia ochre-brown, tegulae reddish-brown, bordered with white; thorax and abdomen reddish-brown, abdominal crest presents, most prominent on 3rd segment. Antennae of male with moderate pectinations to beyond middle, shortening gradually to serrations, which are continue almost to apex; in female pectination shorter than in male. Forewing glossy, dark brown, ochre-reddish, darker in basal and subbasal fields, suffused with whitish scales; antemedial line angled outward on M, curved inward and angled outward on A; medial shadow, if expressed waved; orbicular dark, diffused; reniform traceable, bordered with white diffused line more bright outwardly; white suffusion lies behind reniform in costal area, in females it covers terminal third of wing; postmedial line waved, diffused; ochre-brown with white inner bordering tornal mark present between postmedial and subterminal lines; subterminal line dentate, brown, outwardly bordered with whitish suffusion in mid part of wing; terminal line white, dentate opposite veins, forming row of semilunar marks along termen; fringes grey or ochre-brown. Hindwing bright-yellow, with broad terminal band with dentate yellow terminal line extending along wing and forming yellow anal angle and row of brown semilunar terminal marks; fringes brown. In male genitalia (Fig. 25) uncus broad, apex square; tegumen with wide lobes, shorter than vinculum; juxta shield-like; valva short, quadrangular, narrow posteriorly; costa and ventral margin of valva heavily sclerotised, cucullus rounded, covered with strong setae; central part of valva with prominent soft hairy extension (formed by editum); sacculus narrow, with strong horn-like acute extension curved dorsally, almost reaching apical angle of valva. Aedeagus rather wide, carina with strong scobinate cornuti; vesica projected dorsally, extended medially, bearing two pouch-like subbasal diverticula and small subapical one. In female genitalia ( Fig. 33 ) papillae anales wide, quadrangular; apophyses posteriores and anteriores ones short, equal in length; antrum heavily sclerotised, smooth, funnel-like; ductus bursae short, membranous, corpus bursae long, rather narrow, some extended anteriorly. Distribution (Map 39). Thailand ; Vietnam ; Malaysia : Malay Peninsula, Borneo; Indonesia : Sumatra, Mollucas, Ceram. The moth probably has several generations annually, as adults have been collected through the year. Taxonomic note. Judging from the original description the species was described from a single female ( Fig. 1 ), which is the holotype . The other male specimen from BMNH ( Fig. 2 ) is not a syntype , however it probably had been examined by A. E. Prout (1924) .
