    Not too sure about those black spot on the legs of A. cygna from Taiwan.

    Post 42 no 1.
    I 5hink it is correct as E. maculatrix.
    The Episteme can be very confusing.

    It would appear E. maculatrix have the FW markings white & the HW black patch large & broad.
    E. nipalensis have the FW markings yellow & the HW black patch narrower.

    H. propitia is right.

    TL Seow : Cheers.
    I see what you mean. there are a few others with more spotted legs.

    Perhaps a mixup with the unknown A. formosensis.

    The other three in Taiwan.
    A. l-ngrum.

    A. flavicostata. The FW scales are arranged differently rather than the costa being yellow.Perhaps another mixup & this should be A. formosenssis.

    This one labelled A. cygna may be the real A. flavicostata.
