The S. margopuncta species-group

Diagnosis. The species-group comprises relatively small species displaying limited sexual dimorphism, although females have considerably darker hindwings than males. The male genitalia of the species-group are characterised by the presence of the large corema densely covered with short hair-like scales in the middle of the vinculum. In the valva, species of the group have one or a few distal processes originating from the transverse sclerotised plate situated subapically between the costa and the distal end of the sacculus. In the vesica, the distal diverticulum is distally multilobate with numerous tiny semielliptical subdiverticula. In the female genitalia, the corpus bursae has signa bearing numerous long and robust spines.
