 Pandala, Walker, Catal. Lep. Het. B. M. iv. p. 921 (1855). 

 Forewing short, broad ; exterior margin very slightly oblique and convex ; first 

 subcostal branch emitted at one-third before end of the cell, second from close to 

 end, trifid, fifth from end of the cell ; the cell short, broad ; discocellular outwardly 

 oblique, bent outward near upper end, radial from the angle ; middle median at one- 

 sixth and lower at one-half before end of the cell : hindwing short, broad, exterior 

 margin very convex ; upper end of the cell extending to one-fourth and lower end to 

 nearly one-half length of the wing ; first subcostal at a short distance before end of 

 the cell ; discocellular very obliquely recurved, slightly bent outward near upper end, 

 radial from the angle ; middle median at one-third and lower at one-half before end 

 of the cell. Body short ; thorax pilose ; palpi broad, laterally pilose ; antennae 

 broadly bipectinated ; legs short, femora and tibia3 pilose.

Male. Purplish-brown : forewing with a transverse subbasal darker brown 

 narrow sinuous band, three or four medial bands, and a submarginal band ; the

 pointed, exterior margin oblique, posterior margin straight ; cell short, extending 

 to one-third the wing ; first subcostal emitted at one-fourth before end of the cell, 

 second from the end, quadrifid, the fifth from below second near its base beyond the 

 cell ; upper discocellular shortest, bent, lower outwardly oblique, radial from angle 

 of upper discocellular ; three median branches, first or lower at nearly one-half and 

 second at one-seventh before end of the cell; submedian slightly recurved, with a 

 slender lower basal branch : hindwing broad ; costal vein running close to the margin, 

 subcostal with two branches on a footstalk at a short distance beyond end of the cell ;
