Notes (optional)
SS: could be aurifera as well, given the strong sub-basal line, which is absent in confusa. But the pale costa is an issue, which is present in confusa.
SS: I would go with Rhagastis aurifera (Butler, 1875).
Similar species: Rhagastis aurifera (Butler, 1875).
Wings broader than in Rhagastis aurifera (Butler, 1875). Forewing as in Rhagastis aurifera, but darker in tint, costal margin pale; fringe of hind margin white in middle, continuous with the pinkish-white, longitudinal, subbasal line indicated in Rhagastis aurifera and other species. Ref
