Artaxa angulata (Matsumura, 1927)
Euproctis angulata Matsumura, 1927; J. Coll. Agric. Hokkaido Imp. Univ. 19 (1): 40, pl. 4, f. 2 ♂; TL: Formosa,
Artaxa angulata (Matsumura, 1927)Wang, Wang & Fan, 2011, Notes on the tribe Nygmiini (Lepidoptera: Erebidae: Lymantriinae) from Nanling National Nature Reserve, with description of a new species Zootaxa 2887: pg 59; Fig9-10.

Euproctis angulata Mats. Novitas zoologicae 39, pg 144. Text at https://archive.org/details/novitateszoologi39lond/page/144/mode/1up?view=theater
SS: Agree with ID.
JD : The OD mentions of a broad fuscous medial band, & obsolete post-medial fuscous band interrupted at sub-median, & 5 submarginal black spots. The Nanling paper mentions a yellow FW with two paler lines forming a medial fuscous band & 3 submarginal spots.
Not a complete match to either. In this specimen, the "fuscous" is present in the sub-basal area as well, & the post-medial fuscous band is obsolete near the costa only, in fact the entire costal area is paler.
