Parallelia rigidistria-calefasciens complex
Notes (optional)
See notes in Observation_276705: Parallelia rigidistria (Guenée, 1852)
JD : Is the diffused medial band the only way to distinguish from P. calefaciens? Bold Systems has specimens with non-diffused bands for rigidistria - http://v3.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=455735. If on location, MOI has spoecimens from S. India identified as calefaciens.
GI: See my remarks in observation 276705. The hindwings are clearly shown. They are slightly different as I mentioned in that observation and do find a match in the Lep of Ceylon plate 168 image 3 Agree with the id.
