Globiz lists as Syllepte.
po-po-pro has pointed out that the existing Syllepte nigriflava (Swinhoe, 1894) is an incorrect ID and these are actually Gadessa attemptalis (Snellen, 1890), which I am uploading separately.
JR: Definitely this observation fits well with Syllepte nigriflava, though the generic placement is doubtful.
GI: I think its ok. Why do you doubt the generic placement JR?
