This species differs from audax, "Wlsm., in the absence of a 

 distinct humeral angle on the costa at the base of the fore wings. 

 This seems to be also absent in the female of audax, and it is 

 possible that this may turn out to be a characteristic of the females 

 of both species, or that the single female of audax has been wrongly 

 identified, but I have not sufficient material to decide this point.
