Thailand Moths 2014

[Angiud]

Start the new year, still very poor of Lepidoptera, with a species from Krung Ching national park:


Numenes sp., cfr. insignis (see http://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-5/...gyiini_7_1.php)

and one from Khao Sok national park:


Unidentified Zygaenidae, medium/large size, IMHO mimic a Euploea

[Psyche]

No. 1 is Numenes siletti, which is the type species & continental form. Range NE India to Malaya.

The Sundanian form, separated as N. insignis is restricted to Sumatra, Java & Borneo.

A. sangiflua. This is probably the female from Java. Correction: A female form of A. namouna from Java.

A typo error in Moths of Borneo have the name printed as A. sangiflua which resulted in no info/images when googling.
