(2) MF DFW orange band moderately wide, orange scales usually extended proximally along veins. F DFW band narrow in some localities ( Brazil, Amazonas, Arimã). (3) DFW iridescent band varying in size as a cline: small, limited to tornus or extending from anal margin to approximately half of the CuA2 cell. F DFW iridescent band more diffuse and narrower than that of actorion , especially noticeable below CuA2 where the iridescence is less extended towards the tornus. (4) M DFW androconial organ on the CuA-CuA1-CuA2 intersection pale, contrasting scale color of surrounding area. (5) M DHW discal androconial pad varying from medium to light brown, never darker than associated hairpencil. (6) M DHW discal hairpencil brown, similar in color to, or darker than discal androconial pad. (7) F VFW ripple pattern slightly less dense than that of M, or similar to that of M in some localities ( Brazil, Amazonas, Arimã).
