The cleander group of Arhopala.

[Psyche]

The cleander group
FW postdiscal band spot 4 in line with the rest (ie spots 5, 6, & 9 above & 1b, 2, & 3 below.)
HW spots 5, 6, & 7 in echelon, 5 & 6 staggered & spot 7 atop spot 6.
HW postdiscal band completely dislocated at vein 2.(next to the V-shaped spot 1b.).
FW spot 10 is usually present.
The group is split into 2 subgroups.

The cleander species subgroup comprises two large species A. athada & silhetensis.

The alea subgroup comprise species which are about half the size of the cleander subgroup.

The cleander subgroup.
A. silhetensis is recognizable by its large size, & widely-spaced markings.

A. athada is variable in size & the smaller sizes may be mistaken for an alea member.
A useful guide is that in A. athada the HW postdiscal & submarginal spots/bands are well-separated from space 6 to the inner margin (dorsum).
A. athada showing wide separation between the two mentioned bands.

The alea subgroup have the two bands close together & in the lower part may meet or touch, obliterating the intervening space.
