About Ophiusa disjungens (Walker, 1858)
This species is similar in appearance to Ophiusa discriminans, but differs in having yellowish grey head and thorax. The abdomen lacks a black patch. Its forewings are yellowish grey with no black specks. A maculate line runs beyond the postmedial line. A grey and dark patch lies beyond the sub-apical spots, and there is barely any trace of a patch at the anal angle. The sub-marginal line is dentate, and the area beyond this line is reddish. The hindwing is orange, and its black marking is reduced to a submarginal medial patch. The larvae are pale brownish, with numerous wavy longitudinal black lines. Series of black specks are located between these longitudinal lines. There is red coloration between each pair of legs, and a black patch between each pair of prolegs. A small paired dorsal prominence is found on the 11th somite. The larvae feed on various species in the plant family Myrtaceae, including Eucalyptus, Syncarpia glomulifera and Psidium guajava.
