Monoba implens


Diagnosis.
See Ctenane labuana. The species has a more regular, less flecked forewing pattern than all congeners except tesselata Hampson in Borneo. In tesselata the dark areas on the forewing are more extensive, particularly in a triangle from the centre of the distal margin to the postmedial; the submarginal dots are usually stronger in implens.

Geographical range. Borneo, Peninsular Malaysia, Philippines.

Habitat preference. The species is uncommon, but has been taken in lowland and lower montane forest up to 1000m.
