Sphingonaepiopsis malgassica
Male forewing length: 15 mm. Female forewing length: 16 mm. Forewing upperside with basal half brown, not as dark as in Sphingonaepiopsis obscurus; a dark triangular area with its base on the outer margin near the hind angle extends to vein M3; a similar triangle with its base on the costal margin extends to meet the first triangle apex to apex; the apical area distal to these triangles the same colour as the basal half. Forewing underside orange red, with brown patches; marginal band narrow. Hindwing upperside yellow basally, darkening to orange distally and eventually to dark brown at the outer margin; no sharply defined marginal band (unlike Sphingonaepiopsis pumilio). Hindwing underside dark orange red, heavily scattered with brown scales; outer marginal band narrow, irregular.
