Taxonomic note
Kylin (1931: 12) suggested that this may be a large form of Chrysymenia planifrons; see Wynne (2005; 2006) and Dawes & Mathieson (2008: 386). No final conclusion has been reached; Dawes & Mathieson (2008) do not list C. curtissima separately, but do it list it as a synonym either. - (08 March 2008) - G.M. Guiry
