Moths 2016-2017

[Chequered Lancer]

Just a casual miscellany of dubious insects from recent, and from all around Singapore island. More images will be added in time. As always, assistance is deeply appreciated.

We'll start with some Crambids

1) Lamprophaia alblactalis ?


2) Neomusotima sp ?


3) Musotima sp ?


4) Glyphodes actornalis ?


5) Dichocrocis tigrina ?


6) Unknown

[Chequered Lancer]

Notodontidae and Limacodidae

7) Netria viridiscens or N. multispinae ?


8) Scopelodes sp ?


And some Arctiidae maybe? My mind still doesn't register to the new revision..

9) Amata sp ?


10) Amata sp ?


11) Unknown

6.should be Omiodes diemenalis.

7. Likely Netria viridiscens Female. Male is different.
Schintlmeister revised the N. viridiscens complex into ten species.
The images on the net becomes very confusing mixed up.

In N. mutispinae the post medial (which forms the outer margin of the brown band) forms a sharp cornered indentation into the marginal green area in space 3.
The antemedial (forming the inner margin) is less lobulated.

In N. viridiscens the postmedial indentation is shallow ,often rounded & the antemedial is more lobulated with longer protrusions.

8. No prper match.
Addendum: Looks to be Scopelodes anthela ; basal half darker ,with vague barring in distal half.

9 & 10 Amata stellaris. Body with white stripes ;wingtip white.
http://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-6/...ominae-1-9.php

11. Boradiopsis cf harmani. Zygaenidae, Chalcosiinae.
The arrangment & shape of the spots closely match B. harmani than two others, B. aequalis & bipartita.
Range Borneo. A single record from Singapore.


TL Seow: Cheers.

Some Geometrids


12) Acropteris rectinervata (?)


13) Unknown


14 & 15) Spaniocentra sp ?
Perhaps S. megaspilaria, but there are so many similar-looking ones...



This one has me completely stumped. I have never seen Spaniocentra like this before



16 & 17) Borbacha spp




18) Dindica olivacea ?

[Chequered Lancer]

More Geos..

19) Agathia rubrilineata ?


20) Agathia eromenoides ?


21) Agathia laetata ?


22 & 23) Ornithospila spp




24 & 25) Pareumelea spp
P. hortensiata is the closest I've gotten to these two on the net but something definitely seems quite off.




26) Chrysocraspeda sp
Potentially C. croceomarginata?

[Chequered Lancer]

27) Herochroma flavibasalis ?


28) Unknown
Seems to resemble Plutodes but not sure


29 & 30) Carbia spp




31 & 32) Unknown
