SS: Agree with ID. This is a female. Uploading male and female separately. However, one thing that has puzzled me from the beginning is the species name. Both Hampson and MON state that Poecilalcis latifasciata is pre-occupied. Hampson then proceeds to name this as Boarmia euryzona with description of male and female. Sato proceeds to re-describe this; BUT shouldn't this species be Harutaea euryzona, Hampson?

GI: Until new text emerges to explain the change of species name from euryzona to flavizona, the id Harutaea flavizona Sato, 2000 is accepted
