Post 30.

1. Potanthus nesta;
FW band with continuous overlap (as in P. confucius) HW upperside band veins not darkened; abdominal end black-banded; UnH band almost rectangular (ie spot 4+5 project out very little).

2. Aulocera spp. unknown either padma or brahminus; Description & images are very confusing & do not match.
eg Kollar's image of A. padma fig 1 & 2. There seem to be a mismatch of the upperside & underside bands.

3. Taractrocera maevius.

4. Tarucus balkanicus.

This & T indicus are so similar on the underside that error IDs are rife.
It is thus necessary to get the correct image.

Tarucus balkanicus Turkey where T indicus is absent.

T. indicus.

In T. balkanicus the basal black band extend more darkly along the costa; the black spot between the FW discal & postdiscal bands is rounded (oblong in T. indicus).
