Parasynegia
lineata Warren comb. n.
Borbacha lineata Warren, 1896, Novit. zool. 3: 392.
Parasynegia parumnotata Warren,
1899, Novit. zool. 6: 342.
Diagnosis. This and the next species are smaller than sundastriaria, without
the same prominent, pale-centred forewing discal spot. They are distinguished
from each other in the description of the next species.
Taxonomic notes. The features of the male genitalia are typical of Parasynegia rather
than Borbacha Moore.
Geographical range. Java, Nias, Borneo.
Habitat preference. During the Mulu survey two specimens were taken in
alluvial forest and one in kerangas, all lowland localities. Material in the
BMNH is from Kinabalu, Tenom and Lawas (holotype of parumnotata).
