concentric oval markings in the centre of the forewing and slight iridescence to
its darker grey edge are unmistakeable.
Taxonomic note. The
structure of the male genitalia is massive but typical of Cyclosiella rather
than Trischalis.

range. Sumatra, Borneo.
Habitat preference. Five
specimens have been taken in lowland localities: near sea-level in dry heath
forest, swamp forest and secondary coastal forest in Brunei; at Ulu Dusun and
Poring (600m) in Sabah.
