Diagnosis.
The ground colour of the wings is a distinctive medium reddish brown in the
males with fasciation and usually also the reniform prominently darker. The
female is more ochreous, more lightly fasciated, the fasciae lined distally with
irregular patches of bluish grey.
Taxonomic
note. Galsworthy (1997) suggested the synonymy above, which is
formalised here. Kobes related albertii to
disjungens
Walker and did not consider sundana
in
his description, but the female he illustrated is almost identical to the
holotype of sundana.
Geographical
range. Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Thailand.
Habitat
preference. All records are from lowland forest at and below 300m.
