Cechetra minor
Similar to small specimens of more uniformly patterned Cechetra lineosa but immediately distinguishable by the lack of a pale median dorsal band along the thorax. Upperside of thorax lacking a pale medial band. Dorsal lines of abdomen less prominent than in Cechetra lineosa. Outer midtibial spur generally equal to the inner, but sometimes longer or shorter. Forewing upperside with full complement of seven postmedial lines. Seven lines present in distal half of the wing but line 6 short and completely merged with 7, which is generally blacker posteriorly and somewhat undulating. Forewing underside ground colour orange-beige.
Male genitalia: Gnathos less triangular at tip than in Cechetra lineosa. Valve with large, asymmetrical stridulatory scales, proximal side of each enlarged, longitudinally folded or ribbed, darker than the distal side. Phallus almost symmetrical, apex rounded in dorsal view; the left process vestigial, with just a few teeth and no free projecting process; the right process somewhat widened at apically, dentate.
Only records confirmed by DNA barcoding or which can be reasonably interpreted are mapped here. Records from other areas remain to be confirmed with regard to Cechetra striata.
