Reported from Borneo, Java, Sumatra, India (Spin.): the Indian 
Museum has a much abraded specimen from Sinkip Island. The type 
described by White was from Borneo and varies in the green colour of 
the basal portion of the costa and the base of the tegmina. Westwood’s 
specimen was from Java and the Indian specimen agrees best with his 
description.
