Material examined. 2 males, Malaysia, Borneo, Prov. Sabah, Crocker Range National park , Gunung Emas Highland Res., 1600–1700 m, 116°20'O, 05°48'N, 26.xii 1999 (U. Buchsbaum leg.), genitalia slide: GB7210 male (coll. Behounek, Munich) GoogleMaps .

Diagnosis. Adult ( Fig. 17, 18 View FIGURES 17–24 ). Wingspan: male 23 mm. S. robusta differs from its congeners by pale greenish ground color of forewing mixed with ochre and distinct wing pattern formed by thin black lines; orbicular present, small, bordered with black, reniform 8-shaped, with white nucleus; subterminal streak very distinct, black. In male genitalia ( Fig. 41, 42 View FIGURES 39–44 ) it differs by the shape of uncus, which is short, thin, stick-like; valva like in other species, but somewhat less arched apically; vesica without cornuti. Female genitalia ( Fig. 65 View FIGURES 63–71 ) differ from those of allied species by broad and long antrum, much longer than in its allies.

Distribution. Borneo: Brunei and Malaysian States. The species occurs in montane forests at an elevation of 1600–2000 m.
