Perigeodes poliomera Hampson, 1908, Cat. Lepid. Phal. Br. Mus, 7: 287.
Perigeodes
poliomera albinotata Prout, 1928, Bull. Hill Mus. Witley, 2: 69.
Platysenta
poliomera Hampson; Holloway, 1976:14.
Diagnosis.
The
extensive whitish borders to forewing costa and dorsum are diagnostic.
Taxonomic
notes. Separation
of albinotata as a subspecies is probably unjustified as the facies
features used to do so originally appear variable. There are no genitalia
differences to justify separation.
Geographical
range. N.E.
Himalaya, Hainan, Sumatra, Borneo.
Habitat
preference. The
only Bornean specimen was taken at 1620m on G. Kinabalu.
