Pipturus argenteus is a pest species from the Australasian region. It is listed a a hostplant for S. hippoclus there. There is an error in the Igarashi illustration of the life-cycle. The Sundanian S. hippoclus is very similar to S. lilaea. https://nlliew66butterflies.blogspot...hippoclus.html It is nothing like S. hippoclus in the Papuan region. There the male have rather narrow markings & the female broad ones. Biak, West Irian fig 3, & 4, male & female. https://archive.org/details/transact...p?view=theater It is most likely the location Malaya is actually Maluku. https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-aeJAUy4o7...nJester-LH.jpg TL Seow: Cheers.
