Saccharodite guamana View in CoL species group

Diagnosis. The species of this group can be recognized by the combination of the following characters:

1. Forewings with greatest width of basal cell between M and Sc+R nearly as broad as greatest width of basal median cell.

2. Forewings somewhat oval in shape with typical venation, not very broad.

3. Forewings often powdered or slightly powdered but powder can be lost in museum specimens which can result in forewings with a glassy appearance.

4. Forewings with sections of R after Sc + R fork and of M after the Ms2 fork often with sensory pits.

5. In profile head evenly rounded or only slightly angulated at junction of vertex and face.

6. Male genital styles with proximal dorsal process slender.

7. Apical part of male aedeagus simple, it might bear some lobes but without processes.

Distribution. Species of this group are wide-spread in south-eastern Asia, the eastern Pacific islands and Australia. The majority of species is found in New Guinea and neighbouring islands including the Solomon Islands.
