Miaromima naessigi


Diagnosis.
The head-like mark is less clearly defined and has a more ‘untidy’ interior structure than in other species. Its basal margin has a more transverse (rather than oblique) curvature, with a very pale zone immediately basal to it.

Geographical range. Sumatra, Borneo, Himalaya.

Habitat preference. Only five specimens have been noted from Borneo, all taken during the Mulu survey: three from alluvial forest at 70m, one from dipterocarp forest at 150m and one from upper montane forest at 1780m.
