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.
