    2. Pyroneura natuna.

    Pyroneura natuna & helena are very similar & some authors do not separate the two.

    P. helena FW space 5 with a hyaline spot at the end of the opalescent streak.
    HW veins yellow.
    This would be somethimg like in P. latoia.

    P. natuna' FW without a hyaline spot in space 5.
    HW veins orange-yellow.

    Additional notes.
    P. helena range Sumatra, Malaya & Borneo.
    P. natuna Borneo (including Natuna) Malaya & S. Thailand.

    Under Eliot these would be Pyroneura natuna, not P. helena.
    Note records from Thailand state either as P. helena natuna or just P. natuna.
