See key in Forbes (1948:74). Valvae less elongate and setose patch on the inner face of the cucullus shorter and wider than in obtusaria Hübner. |
| Similar Species: |
- 91a1206 Euchlaena obtusaria: shows only slight genitalic differences and is not supported by DNA barcode as a separate species. Hugh McGuinness (in lit., 2023) suggests that obtusaria might just be a small form with the genitalic differences explained by allometry. Forbes, 1948:76) notes, "Hardly more than a race...".
