039587CE5A15FFFBFF2F22E2FEA2D1C0.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Only males of V. r a n e n s i s are known so far. Two females from the Moluccas (Seram) looking similar to V. r a n e n s i s are deposited in the accessions of the BMNH. Exact identification of those two specimens is hampered by the presence of sexual dimorphism. The females from Seram differ from the males of V. ranensis mainly by the larger size, by the shape of the median line in the hind wing and by the paler colouration of the wings underneath.	en	Schmidt, Olga (2013): Review of the species of Visiana Swinhoe from the Papua New Guinea region (Lepidoptera: Geometridae: Larentiinae).

Hind wings above brown at base, similar to V. variovinosa but somewhat lighter, with wavy, alternative, brown and pale-ochreous lines in the basal half, with almost indistinct, whitish, wavy medial line, underneath coloured and patterned similar to forewings, but with median lines hardly distinct, with small brownish dots along veins medially, with a discal dot slightly broader than in V. v a r io v in os a (Figs 2, 10). Male genitalia (Figs 24, 25). Uncus larger than in V. variovinosa, shaped like a slightly elongated triangle, with apex sharp; tegumen short, without distinct lateral prominences at base of uncus, with lateral arms slightly longer than in V. v a r i o v i n o s a, directed towards the juxta; valvae similar to V. ranensis, but slightly broader medially, with costa less curved, sclerotised, with medium-sized, slightly curved, tapering projecting apical process, with rather indistinct, flat subapical prominence and with medium-sized rather straight basal projection; saccus medium-sized, triangular shaped, somewhat narrowed, slightly longer than in V. v a r i o v i n o s a; juxta with medium-sized (slightly shorter than in V. v a r i o v i n o s a), apically flat lateral papillae; aedeagus straight, slightly longer than in V. variovinosa, with anellus covered with spines, without cornuti but with a large patch of distinct scobination in vesica.

039587CE5A1EFFF1FF2F2752FBB0D55B.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Forewings above pale ochreous to brown, with median band distinct, more reddish than in other species, with basal band lighter. Uncus larger than in V. v a r i o v i n o s a, shaped like a slightly elongated triangle, tegumen without distinct lateral prominences at base of uncus, valval costa with finger-shaped subapical prominence less distinct than in V. variovinosa and similar to V. ranensis but not as broad and prominent, aedeagus relatively thin, without cornuti but with a large patch of distinct scobination in vesica which is a distinguishing character.	en	Schmidt, Olga (2013): Review of the species of Visiana Swinhoe from the Papua New Guinea region (Lepidoptera: Geometridae: Larentiinae).
