Sundagrapha Holloway
Type species: tenebrosa Swinhoe.
The genus resembles Zamarada in wing venation, antennal
characters and the possession of prominent discal spots on both wings. The wings
lack a hyaline zone and are pinkish, finely and densely striated rufous. They
are paler below, with broad brown borders.
The male genitalia have a sinuously conical uncus, the apex bifid. The
ventral portion of the valve is triangular, the apex produced, with a curved
setose ridge running from the apex to the base. The dorsal arm is outcurved
rather than angled. There are weak coremata. The aedeagus has a pair of large
but unequal cornuti in the vesica.
The female genitalia are similar to those of Zamarada, but the
lamella vaginalis consists of a broad plate encircled on each side by irregular
ridges.
Two species are included, both occurring in Borneo.
