C. ochripes Moore (39 cl). S'- purely white; palpi, forelegs, middle and posterior tarsi light orange, ochripcs. 
$ forehead, costa and apex of forewing sometimes liuecl dark. S 40 mm. The $ has more rounded forewings, 
and the veins 4 and 5 rise from the cell. Hindwing without mock veins from the veins 1 a, 4 and 5 as in the 
forewing. Purely white; palpi, forelegs, the middle and posterior tarsi bright orange. Expanse of wings: 
48 mm. India (Darjeeling, Kliasia-Hills) and West China. 
C. cygna Moore (39 d, as cyena). $ white, forewing silky-white with faint traces of a band-marking, cygna. 
hindwing not silk-coloured. Palpi and forelegs oclireous-yellow, the middle and posterior tarsi light ochreous- 
yellow. Expanse of wings: 40 mm. Southern Andamans, Ceylon. 
C. dinawa B.-Bak. (39 d). S'- head creamy, thorax whitish, legs yellowish, abdomen yellow. Both dinawa. 
wings hyaline with dispersed erect scales forming a spot on the forewing at the cell-end and being also noticeable 
at the posterior margin below vein 2 and in the subterminal area; they are similarly found in the hindwing. 
Expanse of wings: 40 mm. Dinawa in British New Guinea, in September. 
Note. Caviria owgarra B.-Bak. see under Porthesia. 
C. impressa Snell. $: antennae, palpi, anterior tibiae entirely and the other tibiae at the ends ochreous- impressa. 
yellow, otherwise the head, thorax, and wings beneath and above are lustrous snow-white, the forewing with 
three transverse bands extending parallel to the margin and at equal distances from each other, but owing 
to their different scaling they are not lustrous. Abdomen white-haired, in the living insect it will probably 
be snow-white, whereas in the specimens of the collections it seems to be greyish. Expanse of wings: 36 to 37 mm. 
Java, Amboina, Sandakan, Fergusson Island. 
C. sericea Moore (39 c) is the only species of the genus penetrating the palearctic region. In the sericea. 
Indo-Australian fauna it inhabits Sikkim where it is not rare. Comp. Vol. II, p. 124. 
15. Genus: PeitdrSa Swinh. 
For Caragola rinaria Moore Swinhoe established a new genus, Pendria, in 1906, characterized by small 
and porrect palpi, doubly-combed antennae, the posterior tibiae provided with 4 small spurs, as well as by 
the neuration. In the forewing 2 rises at % of the cell, 3 before the angle, 4 from the angle, 5 from the middle 
of the discocellular, 6 from the upper angle, 7 +8 +9 -f 10 on a footstalk, 11 from the cell at 3 / 4 . 
In the hindwing 2, 3 and 4 as in the forewing, 5 from close before the angle, 6 and 7 from the upper angle. 
P. rinaria Moore ( = margaritacea Snell., snelleni Ky.). S'- body white, antennal shaft brown and rinaria. 
white, pinnae brownish. Forewing silvery white, with three very oblique, dentate bands in the distal half of the 
wing, the middle band being marked with a brown line; besides with two indistinct subapical spots. Costa 
brown. Tips of fringes brown. Hindwing white, in the middle with brown tips of the fringes. $ with white 
antennae. Expanse of wings: S 42, 2 60 mm. Java, Sumatra. — According to Swinhoe, dica Swinh. (39 e) dica. 
from the Khasia Hills differs by its much larger size and rounded hindwings, whereas the hindwing of rinaria 
is more or less quadrangular, by reason of the margin being straight between the veins 2 and 7. 
P. rotundata Swinh. S'- purely white. Palpi above black. Antennae and legs marked black. Forewing rot undata. 
with a blackish costal line in 2 / 3 of its length and with one median, discal'and submarginal, indistinctly greyish, 
straight transverse band each, appearing only in certain directions. Hindwing with a similar, short, indistinct 
mark in the middle, and another one near the margin. Fringes of both wings purely white. Expanse of wings: 
41 y 2 mm. Nias. 
16. Genus: Pantaua Wkr. 
The 8, mostly Chinese forms of this genus enumerated in the palearctic part are opposed by about 
20 occurring in the Indian region. In Australia it seems to be absent. As to the genus itself arid its habits 
comp. Vol. II, p. 124. 
Our illustration of this genus shows in the palearctic part (Vol. II, t. 20) three, and in this volume on 
t. 41 and 42 seven new Pantama- figures. While the tables were in work, the figures were subsequently changed 
so that the denominations got into disorder, for which reason we premise the treatment of the separate genera 
by an adjusted tabular explanation.
