From editor or global species database
Additional information Richardson (1983: 125) lists Chloraea sibuyanica (Mollendorff, 1896) as a subspecies/synonym of C. dryope. The citation is Mollendorff, 1896 Nachrbl. D. Mal. Ges. 28:11. The coauthor of the reference, J. F. Quadras is not mentioned. Hypselostoma sibuyanica is described on page 11, not a Chloraea. Chloraea sibuyanica is not listed in Mollendorff (1898) [details]
