Taxonomy
Strepsinoma sp. 1. A specimen near S. croesusalis (Walker 1859) in the MfNH, Berlin; from Sabah (Tawau Hills N P).
Description
A brown, white and fulvous sp. whose patterning closely resembles S. croesusalis but differs subtly in the distribution of the fasciae. In most the Bornean specimens of the S. croesusalis group the white trianglular area in the FW is not as obvious as in many W. Malaysian specimens.
