Diagnosis. The
facies is somewhat Asura-like as in nebulosa, but the grey
streaks are in the spaces rather than on the veins, and the central band is
narrower, evenly curved rather than zig-zag.
Taxonomic note. T.
setiniformis Hampson comb. n.
(Java) has somewhat similar facies and similar male genitalia, and is certainly
congeneric if not conspecific.
Geographical
range. Borneo.
Habitat preference. Older
material is from lowland Sarawak and from G. Kinabalu. More recently, two
specimens have been taken at about 1620m on G. Kinabalu and a third at 1000m on
G. Mulu. There is material in the USNM from 1530m on G. Kinabalu, just south of
Kundasang.
