Hello Johan,
Your Dirphia is the first specimen of Dirphia docquinae Lemaire, 1993 (honorific name for the birthname of the wife of Lionel SENECAUX, a great local and passed entomologist from french Guiana) that I see out of our area. This very scarce species is rather similar to
D. acidalia who may exist too in Suriname. The female of D. docquinae remains unknown.
Your other dets. are OK. I have informed Bill sometime ago about the correction of this det.
Best wishes, F. Bénéluz
