Callopistria
montana Holloway
Callopistria montana Holloway, 1976: 12.
Diagnosis.
This species
is very closely related to pulchrilinea Walker but is larger. The
forewing antemedial is more angular, the elements more regular, the distal
anterior one not angled at the radial vein. The valves are somewhat longer in
the male genitalia, and the aedeagus vesica is more massively spined, having the
distinct cluster of finer spines of pulchrilinea reduced or absent.
Geographical

material has been taken in upper montane localities, from 1500m to 2110m on G.
Kinabalu, and at 1780m on G. Mulu and 1200m on G. Api during the Mulu survey.
