Notes (optional)
Callyna
SS: Callyna melanosema Hampson, 1918. Reasonable match to Callyna melanosema but no images for comparison. Would be a new record for India as the TL is Sri Lanka and there are no published records from anywhere else.
Callyna melanosema Hampson, 1918; Novit. Zool. 25:157; TL: Ceylon, Haragama. Text at https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/3856960#page/175/mode/1up
JD : Agree with ID. Very good match to the description.
GI: Agree. I too recorded it this February from Idukki
