Noctua janthe/janthina

[Hannu Saarenmaa]

On janthina, the black margin of the rearwing is much broader than in
janthe.  One can even say that there is more black colour in the
rearwing than yellow.  Also cilia has some black taint in front part of
the rearwing.

There is a picture in Peter Skou's Danish language book "Nordens ugler".
