Neope pulaha.

The two species N. pulaha & pulahoides are confusingly similar.
The white markings are wider in DSF.
Evans[ statement that the FW cellend white band exrend fully across the cell in pulahoides but not in pulaha also does not work.


N. pulaha ;HW basak & central area darkened in a squarish pattern.
The markings are less defined in it.
