| Notes : |
| This is yet another species which is very difficult to
distinguish between this and other members of the group. The subspecies, perspicua, has often been mis-identified with that of D. berinda boylaea. It can only be identified by examination of the uncus. There is no definite pattern characteristic, which makes the identification of this and the related species more than a little difficult unless you are prepared to examine the uncus and other internal organs. |
