Eudocima formosa (Griveaud & Viette, 1960)

(Figs 3: G–H, 17: J, 22: P–T, 29: I, 71: F, 72: F, 73–77, 88: C)

This Madagascar endemic is the only species classified as Eudocima that completely lacks a hindwing marginal band. The medial patch is reduced to a somewhat round dot, a condition otherwise found only in E. apta and E. materna within the Eudocima . The erroneous generic placement is discussed in the Calpinae Phylogeny section below.

[ Phalaena [ Noctua] felicia] (Stoll, 1790)

(Fig. 28: Q)

This unrecognized phenotype from Suriname was listed as a Eudocima by Poole (1989) and Zaspel & Branham (2008). Zilli & Hogenes (2002) noted the pattern was totally unlike any Eudocima species and concluded it does not belong in this group. We agree with the latter interpretation and believe this species should be excluded from the genus Eudocima .
