Looking at MoV, P. 4, T. mimela is sexually dimorphic. This would need to be the male to be that species with the sharper point to the forewings.and stronger clearer markings. I'm not sure the markings would match T. mimela (which is very similar to T. Intextata they say anyway) and to my eye the dot pattern at the forewing outer margin seems more sparse and widely separated here compared to the MoV photo of the male, but admittedly, I have not looked a large series of photos.
