Ziridava xylinaria Walker, [1863] View in CoL .
Syntype (s) female(s), Malaysia, Borneo, Sarawak (Oxford University Museum of Natural History) (not examined). Morphological characters were discussed by Holloway (1982, 1997). The following taxa are included: Ziridava xylinaria subrubida Warren, 1897 , Chloroclystis leptomita Turner, 1907 , and Ziridava xylinaria subaequata Prout, 1929 (see Holloway 1997).
Holloway (1979) assigned the specimens from New Caledonia to Ziridava xylinaria , with a note that the aedeagus vesica and the apex of the New Caledonian male were more thickly scobinate than in typical xylinaria from Sarawak.
Chloroclystis leptomita Turner, 1907 . Syntypes male, female, Australia, Queensland (north), Kuranda (ANIC) (adults resemble Z. xylinaria , genitalia not examined).
Ziridava xylinaria subaequata Prout, 1929 . Holotype female, Indonesia, Seram (central), Maluku, Manusela (slide Geom:11261HT-JDH, examined) (NHM).
Ziridava xylinaria subrubida Warren, 1897 . Holotype male, Indonesia, Sulawesi (south) (slide Geom:11254HT- JDH, examined) (NHM).
Geographical range. Borneo: Sarawak (type locality), Sumatra, Sulawesi ( ssp. subrubida ), Moluccas ( ssp. subaequata ), New Guinea, Queensland ( ssp. leptomita ); Vanuatu and New Caledonia (lowland to upper montane) (see Holloway 1982, 1997).
Note. Scoble (1999) treated the three subspecies of xylinaria as synonyms. The Ziridava xylinaria -group needs a further revision as not all the type specimens have been examined so far. Specimens formerly treated as Ziridava xylinaria from New Caledonia (see Holloway 1979) may possibly belong to another species.
