Diagnosis. The wing patterns of this species are similar to those of O. albosignaria as follows: the postmedial lines of both wings are serrate between the costa and M1 and near the inner margin, and appearing as spots on the other veins; the discal spots are large and broad-ringed, and the dark band between the medial line and the outer margin of the discal spot of hindwing is absent. But the species can be distinguished by the following characters: the wing colour is green, but greyish white in O. albosignaria; the terminal bands on the underside of both wings are broader. The most distinct differences are in the male genitalia, as follows: the uncus is wider, with two pairs of lateral processes, as in O. clararia (Sundaland, Philippines), whereas in O. albosignaria, the uncus has only one pair of lateral processes; the ampulla is not developed; the juxta is almost trapezoidal, whereas in O. albosignaria, it is markedly narrowed medially; the sclerotized spines of the aedeagus are larger than O. albosignaria . In the female genitalia: the ductus bursae is longer than that of O. albosignaria; the signum has more and shorter marginal spines, and some central teeth are fused.
