This can hardly be the çf of L. alboannulata \ apart 

 from the différence in colouration there are structural 

 différences; e. g. the areola is shorter compared to its breadth; 

 its apex is completely transverse and does uot bulge inwardly 

 as it does in L, alboannulata and its basai keel is clearly 

 defiued. There is no stump of a nervure on the récurrent 

 and that on the cubito-disco nervure is short.
