I remembered seeing pix of these but couldn't place it.
Amazingly the genus is unknown in Borneo & so out of MoB.

TL Seow :Cheers.

Volume 15, Tribe Ophiusini. 2 species recorded from Borneo.

You are quite right.
I have the book on Catocalinae & still miss the image of it.

How about Chloroclystis/Pasiphila sp. for #14-1?

No match for these two genera in Moths of Borneo.
The FW markings look quite different & the HWs are largely inmarked.

Agreed some examples on the web look similar if correctly depicted.
However HW shape & band differ & ground pattern finely striated.

In checking the Chloroclystis species I think some of the images on the web are incoorect.
eg the one below does not match that in MoB. Different pattern & FW should be 2x the size of the HW.
