BIN (holotype): BOLD:AAI3930.

Diagnosis

Unmistakable. Similar as other constantinaria group members, but striae on the underside of the wings completely reduced, and instead with dark brown ground colour (except for the yellow blotch). It has a light ochreous costa on forewing underside and a light ochreous marginal band on the underside of both wings. COI-barcode: the minimum observed distance to the genetically most similar species ( C.brenemanae ) is 4.7%.

Etymology

The species is named in honour of Rodolphe Rougerie, MNHN, Paris, France.
