Comment number:   1
By:   Darren Pietersen
Comment:   Ex. Nucras tessellata. Specimen re-examined and ID confirmed by Werner Conradie (22 October 2021) who also says: "The specimen is entered as a N. ornata in our database. I have also examined the specimen and it looks like a typical N. ornata. The original label also says that it is a N. ornata and it is included in Broadley (1972) as N. ornata, citing FitzSimons (1943) and old PEM number 359.
