Hadennia jutalis
Notes (optional)
Separating jutalis, mysalis & hypenalis
Key features separating the three species, based on OD, Owada (1992) and Holloway (2008).
Hadennia jutalis: the only species with the sub-marginal line on both wings have pale testaceous streaks.
Hadennia hypenalis: similar to mysalis, from which it is separated by less prominent mauve oblique band on forewing. White submarginal fascia faintly evident on fore- and hindwings is hardly visible.
Hadennia mysalis more prominent mauve oblique band on forewing and there is an irregular, punctate, white submarginal fascia faintly evident on fore- and hindwings, with the brown ground distal to it slightly paler; this submarginal is further from the margin on the hindwings.
