Taxonomy
Scoparia sp. 16. A single un-identified specimen from Sabah (KML) deposited in the ITBC Borneensis Coll.
Description
A black and white morphotype with a FW with a broad grey median band bounded by an obvious curving white ante-median band and a les obvious pale post median fascia.
Subtornally there is a large white patch and another smaller subapically. The termenal band is pale with two lines of subtermenal dark dashes and interneural termenal spots. The HW is very pale grey darker towards the termen.
Very similar to Scoparia sp. 19 but that has a much broader curving white ante-median band and larger dark basal areas.
