”Sabaria”
anagoga Prout
Sabaria anagoga Prout, 1931, Novit. zool. 37: 29.
This species was described from a male deposited in the Hamburg Museum and
was therefore probably destroyed by bombing during the war. The
description (of a cinnamon-drab and fawn insect, coloured as in some forms
of Anagoga pulveraria Linnaeus, irrorated and strigulated,
intermediate between rondelaria and Zomia group taxa) could
apply, but not very precisely, to any member of the spurca complex,
though with yellow present only on the hindwing underside. The identity of
anagoga cannot therefore be fixed.
