Notes.
This species is distributed in northern and central
Vietnam
. Male wings are pale orange colored, but the apices are hyaline. Bodies of male and female are shown in
Figure 17a and 17b
, respectively.
Asahina (1977)
noted that male specimens taken in
Malaysia
and southern
Thailand
have an entirely pale brownish [sic] HW, but that in Laotian males, the brownish [sic] area of HW is restricted before the pterostigma, although a clear geographical differentiation using this character seems difficult. We also confirmed this difference between
Malaysia
and
Laos
. In
Vietnam
and
China
, all male specimens examined have a HW similar to that observed in Laotian males (
Fig. 17a
). Male genital ligula has laterally curved flagella typically seen in other
Euphaea
species, but these are relatively narrow and elongated (
Fig. 17c
).
