Eudocima treadawayi Zilli & Hogenes, 2002

( Fig. 11 : I)

It is sympatric with similar E. cocalus in the Philippines but can be separated by the duller more olive forewing color, and reduced white maculation in the female ( Zilli et al. 2017). The pm line of E. treadawayi is distinctly sinusoidal posterior of vein R5, whereas it is fairly straight in E. cocalus . In E. cocalus the pm line is sharply bent at vein R5, whereas in E. treadaway it is straight across this vein. It has been recorded from the Philippine islands of Leyte and Negros ( Zilli et al. 2017).
