fascia. A rare form has large black spots at the tornus of each wing and more
extensive blackening of the posterior part of the forewing postmedial and
submarginal.
Geographical range. Borneo (Kinabalu only).
Habitat preference. This species is abundant at 2600m on G. Kinabalu, but
also recorded singly as low as 1930m. Females are far commoner than males in
light trap samples.
