Notes

The distribution map of Thauria aliris and lathy
Thauria distribution

The population from Laos which figured in Osada et al. (1999) have broader white band on the UpF than ssp.gabrieli and band is not diffuse as ssp.siamensis. It is quite similar to ssp.amplifascia from Myanmar. I treat it as ssp.amplifascia provisionally, although there is a geographic problem between Myanmar and Laos populations.
The sympatricity of both Thauria aliris and Thauria lathy has not been confirmed. Further distributional research is needed.
