Garaeus albipuncta
SS: Garaeus albipuncta (Warren, 1896)
Garaeus albipuncta MON Part 2, Pl. 60/24.
Hygrochroa albipuncta Warren, 1896. Nov. Zool. 3: 145. TL: Sikkim, Khasi. Text at https://archive.org/stream/novitateszoologi03lond#page/145/mode/1up
http://v3.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=274486 for albipuncta.
Lepindex mentions that this may be a form of colorata.
In Moths of Tale, we had proposed that Garaeus albipuncta (Warren, 1896) be treated as a synonym of coloratura, but on examining this further, the white tooth below the apex on costa and the shape of the forewing postmedial seem sufficiently different for this to be a separate species. Uploading images of colorata separately.
