Diagnosis. See Callidula sumatrensis
Pagenstecher. The male genitalia have the valve in two
longitudinal, slightly arcuate components as illustrated. There are two pairs of
scent pencils. The female lacks a signum in the bursa.
Geographical range. Sundaland; Burma, Thailand (ssp. minor Moore).
Habitat preference. The species appears to be more frequent in lowland
forest, though most material seen is without altitude data from G. Kinabalu (Waterstradt).
