A fine wavy line is discernible on the forewing as would be expected for Amelora anepiscepta. Given the anetannae indicate this is a female, then the darker stippling present is consistent although MoV say oversall colour varies from grey to reddish brown. However the apparently less distinct wavy line in this female is not consistent with MOV's comments which indicate the line is more generally distinct in the females than the males. See comments for sighting no 4377201 and sighting no 437684.
