Cossedia sp.


A single female matching the female referred by Kobes (1997) to his concept of erateinalis has been taken at 1670m on Bukit Pagon in Brunei; the material noted by Kobes was from lowland localities. It has a yellower centre to the hindwing than that of the next species, and the margin is less angular; there is no subtornal yellow patch on the forewing. A male that might be referable to it is also illustrated, matching the female in forewing pattern. It is not exactly the same as the �erateinalis� male illustrated by Kobes (1997) in that, though it has a similarly falcate apex to the hindwing angle, this is more extensively yellow. The genitalia have conspicuous lateral patches of spines on the anellus; the aedeagus has a shorter cornutus than in hyriodes Hampson, and a vesica generally more as proesei Kobes and allies.
