MATERIAL

No material was investigated for this species.

DIAGNOSIS

In male genitalia ( Fig. 102 View Figs ), the very short, rounded uncus and the two conspicuous spine-like cornuti on the vesica unambiguously separate this species from other Calamotropha species ( Błeszyński, 1961). In female genitalia ( Fig. 160 View Figs 160-163 ), the conspicuous sterigma covered by minute hair forms a chamber surrounding the antrum.

DISTRIBUTION

Ranging from India to the Philippines ( Błeszyński, 1961).

REMARKS

Błeszyński (1961) reports this species from the Philippines.
