I've checked http://www.mothsofborneo.com/part-11/Boarmiini/boarmiini_5_1.php
No abdomen there though (seems it has been prepared), generally agree. Moving. Moreover the link Irina gave clears that up, no questions.

If this is subspecies, that could clear the situation. I gave link to nominative, didn't consider subspecies. Will check. Number 1 task for tomorrow. Alexandr, thanks.

Please check The moths of Borneo, pics aren't quite fine though, but Dilophodes elegans is there, btw some sources say Borneo has its own subspecies and even a few are described :)

Irina, I'll surely do tomorrow and will put all dots on i :) Daytime I could surf the web with my phone only, so sadly can't check....

Vasily, I don't insist on ID, just suppose... Still what about Japanese elegans may differ a lot compared to elegans from Borneo?) Please check the same Japanese, pics from Borneo:

On others either...
I've digged lots on this, there are lots of images where it's identified to gender only (
Hard nut it is, alas (
