Collinsa acutalis (Walker, [1866])
1) OD : Pyralis acutalis Walker, 1866, List Spec. Lepid. Insects Colln. Br. Mus. 34: 1523, described from Indonesia - https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/120100#page/829/mode/1up
2) https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/1104375-Collinsa-acutalis
3) http://www.pyralidsofborneo.org/index.php?collinsa-acutalis-walker1866-1865-plate-3
4) On the Picture-winged Leaf Moths from Chittagong University Campus, Bangladesh Rayhan, et al, TROP. LEPID. RES., 32(2): 118-126, 2022 lists hamifera & acutalis as separate species, & also refers to the “acutalis group”
Rhodoneura hamifera, Moore, [1888] 1887 is a synonym – refer Pyralids of Borneo, also refer to this article on hamifera - https://archive.org/details/tlsj-lepid-57-4-301/mode/2up?view=theater
Lepindex classifies acutalis under Rhodoneura, but this may not be updated. It also lists hamifera as a junior subjective synonym
Hampson considered hamifera under Rhodoneura nitens
SS: Moths of Laos, Pl. 93 lists Rhodoneura fulvipicta and Rhodoneura hamifera as valid species. I'm not so clear about how to separate Collinsa acutalis (Walker, [1866]), Rhodoneura fulvipicta and Rhodoneura hamifera. I also have a similar individual from Eaglenest, which I will upload, but I have not been able to identify this reliably.
