Wing membrane non-crenulate: acciusalis and angustifimbrialis
Ramila acciusalis: FW with costa orange. (Chen & Wu, 2014; Hampson, 1896)
Ramila angustifimbrialis: Forewing with costa fulvous; the lines obsolescent; the marginal line more maculate (Chen & Wu, 2014). The costa colour is mentioned as a feature for separation, the OD for acciusalis does not mention an orange costa, nor does Pyralids of Borneo mention this. Hence, I am not absolutely certain how acciusalis and angustifimbrialis are separated. This individual has a bright orange costa.
