Beanoides nitida
Notes (optional)
Beanoides nitida (Tams, 1924)
Beana nitida Tams, 1924; J. nat. Hist. Soc. Siam 6 (3): 237, pl. 17, f. 17; TL: Siam, Sriracha
Beana nitida Tams, 1924; MON, Part 4, Pl. 114/6-18.
MOT, Vol. 3, Part 2, Pl. 21/42-47.
Pellinen, M.J. and Wahlberg, N., 2021. Changes in the genus Beana Walker (Beaninae Zahiri & Holloway) with two new species and removing Beana nitida Tams to a new genus Beanoides (gen. nov.). Zootaxa, 4941(3), pp.415-424.

No access to OD.
GI: Have access to MOT, MON and iNat. Going by these, it appears that Beana nitida is a species with varying markings on its wings. Hence I don't feel competent enough to id it to the species level. Identify it ias Beana spp. only.
JD : I would agree with Beanoides nitida though it appears to have many forms. Beanoides is monotypic & besides the size , from the images including iNat & the references, the FW shape appears to differ from Beana spp. in being broader & with the termen slightly angulated at the centre
