The species Leucochlaena hipparis (Druce) belongs in the genus Spodoptera based on morphological characters of the male and female genitalia, as well as maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood analysis of the 658 bp barcode region of cytochrome oxidae (COI). Adult and male and female genitalia are illustrated. Cladograms are included to illustrate the placement of Leucochlaena hipparis within Spodoptera.
