Collected?
Did you collect this one? I think most Satronia in the guide are misidentified, but this and your other example look correct. I’d like confirmation, though.

I agree
I see that marita has a narrow poorly defined subterminal band, lacking in tantilla, which is bordered anteriorly by three black bars, also absent in tantilla. Tom's look good for tantilla and the rest look like marita to me.

I don't have Brown & Jaeger (2014) so I'll run this by Richard Brown.

Species description available online
That’s one of the major differences I’ve noticed as well. It’s also worth mentioning that the palpi in Tom’s images are quite different from those in the others, though comparison to standard dorsal images of types is difficult. I’ve tagged the images and can move them once Dr. Brown has weighed in.

Satronia tantilla
Richard confirmed the ID. He's slightly on the fence with the other one of Tom's the rest are Cydia marita and moved them. Thanks!

Unfortunately no
If I see another one, I'll be sure to save it.
