Jamides talinga talinga

Four species of Jamides are very similar in having the following features.

1. The HW sub-basal band is dislocated, ie the white striae forming its margins are not aligned.
2. The FW postdiscal band is variably dislocated near the upper end at vein 6.At the lower it is fully dislocated leaving what appear to be an unpaired stria.

Jamides alecto ageladas.
Large .FW margin straighter.
FW white striae broader, particularly the submarginal series

Two observations are probably of this species. Correction: J. alecto aberrations.
