Abraxas poliostrota Hampson, 1907. Journal of Bombay Natural History Society. 18 (1): 44, Plate E, fig 18.
Abraxas latizonata Hampson, 1907. Journal of Bombay Natural History Society. 18 (1): 44, Plate E, fig 29.
Sondhi et al 2021. Moths of Shendurney. Plate 3/49.
Notes: This little-known species and Abraxas poliostrota Hampson, 1907 closely resemble each other. Based on the original description of both these species, our record closely matches A. latizonata, but it has not yet been shown, by dissection of genitalia for example, that both taxa are in fact distinct species. ID confirmation and comment by D. Stuning during review.
