Type material. Holotype: male, [ Indonesia, Java] “ Djoenggo-Ardjoeno 1500 m, 9.37 [ix. 1937] O.- Java Kalis / Museum Leiden verzameling W.K.J. Roepke, genitalia slide 9-150510 VK.; paratype: 1 male: [Java] Pengalengan, Preanger, BM noctuid slide 20964 ( BMNH). The holotype is preserved in RMNH, Leiden, The Netherlands; the paratype is in the collection of BMNH, London.
Diagnosis. The new species is close to S. futii and S. futioides . Externally it differs from its allies by grey coloration of the forewing with some greenish tint and by twin, straight antemedial line; from S. futii it differs by clear 8-shaped reniform. In male genitalia it differs from S. futii by broader valva, especially in basal part and the absence of the ring of minute cornuti in vesica; from S. futioides it differs by more developed uncus, which is about two times larger than in S. futioides and broader valva. Males have corematal organ on 8 th segment of abdomen ( Fig. 54 View FIGURES 49–54 ) formed by thin sclerotized semiring and small coremata, smaller than in S. futii and S. futioides . Female unknown.
Description. Adult ( Fig. 14 View FIGURES 9–16 ). Wingspan 22 mm. Head and thorax brownish-grey; forewing pale brownishgrey, somewhat darker along costa and with light greenish tint; the elements of pattern black or blackish. Basal line marked by blackish scales in basal field; subbasal field pale brownish-grey; antemedial line twin, straight, black, more expressed in costal part, diffused in ventral part of wing; medial field pale brownishgrey, with distinct semilunar orbicular, 8-shaped reniform and thin, dentate medial line, with darker suffusion in ventral part of wing; postmedial line thin, black, arising from costa in mid of wing, above reniform incurved to outer margin, then straight following to lateral margin; subterminal and terminal fields pale brownish-grey, separated by diffused pale line; subterminal field with distinct black subterminal streak, in mid part with brownish suffusion; cilia brownish-grey, pale basally. Hindwing brownish-grey, darker in terminal part, with traceable discal spot; cilia brownish-grey, pale yellowish basally.
Male genitalia ( Fig. 39 View FIGURES 39–44 ). Uncus short, similar to S. futii , larger and much broader than in S. elegans and S. futioides ; tegumen and vinculum thin, tegumen about 1.5 times higher than vinculum; juxta shield-like, transtilla developed, with moderate sclerotized plates; valva much broader and massive, especially basally, compared with S. elegans , S. futii and S. futioides , somewhat curved and gradually tapered apically, bearing one strong spine on apex; sacculus massive, with large saccular plate, extending above edge of valva; aedeagus more massive than in S. elegans , vesica membranous, without fine scobination as in S. elegans and ring of minute cornuti as in S. futii .
Distribution ( Fig. 70 View FIGURES 63–71 ). Indonesia, Java. The species is known only from its type-locality.
Etymology. The species name is derived from the name of Java Island, the type-locality.
