Glenea (Macroglenea) sp. for me.

I am unable to separate on picture Glenea (Macroglenea) beatrix Thomson, 1879 , Glenea elegans var. clytia Thomson, 1879 ( picture in Biolib), Glenea (Macroglenea) venus Thomson, 1865 , Glenea (Macroglenea) voeti Vives, 2013
...and Vives synonymised G.(Macroglena) spinifera

This subgenus is well definited, with a small number of species,... but it needs a true revision with a large number of specimens.

Glenea beatrix Thomson, 1879 is the only one widespread in the Philippines.... according to Breuning!

Glenea voeti Vives, 2013 is an unjustified replacement name of Glenea venus Thomson, 1865... which also has a lot of available names (hygia Thomson 1879, parthenope Thomson 1879, celebensis Ritsema 1892, finschi Kuntzen 1914, heinrothi Kuntzen 1914, germanica Kuntzen 1914, mixta Aurivillius 1923, bilitonensis Breuning, 1956) without being necessary to invent another one.
Moreover, it is necessary to check if someone make valid spinifera Voet through a description. For example, the combination Glenea spinifera Breuning, 1952 is undoubtedly valid.

The differences among venus, beatrix and elegans are rather fine... and need certainly a revision.
