Diagnosis. The forewings are a slightly paler, brighter green than in the previous
two species, with the postmedial distal border angled centrally (also on the
underside) without the angle being conspicuously darker. The central dark band
is more distinctly narrowed towards the tornus, and the submarginal zone is only
lightly marked, leaving a clear band of ground colour.
Geographical range. Borneo.
Habitat preference. The species is rare, found only on G. Kinabalu from
1500m to 1930m.
