Strepsinoma sp. 3. A specimen near S. croesusalis (Walker 1859) in the MfNH, Berlin from Sabah (Tawau Hills N P).
Description

In most the Bornean specimens of the S. croesusalis group the white triangular area in the FW is not as obvious as in many W. Malaysian specimens. See Strepsinoma croesusalis (Walker 1859 and also Strepsionoma spp. 1, 2, & 4.
