Abstract
The present study discusses the systematic accounts of 66 species of the family Notodontidae recorded from the Indian state of Manipur. There are some records of the moths from other places including Sikkim (India) and Nepal in addition to Shirui Hill, Manipur. Here, we report, (1) three new species to science viz. Cleapa ukhrulensis Irungbam & Schintlmeister sp. nov., Spatalina rimbiensis Irungbam & Schintlmeister sp. nov. and Hexafrenum tangkhula Irungbam & Schintlmeister sp. nov.; (2) seventeen species for the first time from India: Hupodonta corticalis Butler, 1877, Chalepa binotata Kiriakoff, 1959, Besaia isis Schintlmeister, 1997, Ogulina. argentilinea Cai, 1982, Bireta juncturina (Kiriakoff, 1959), Spatalina melanopa Schintlmeister, 2007, S. desiccata desiccata (Kiriakoff, 1963), S. umbrosa (Leech, 1898), Phalera albocalceolata (Bryk, 1950), Neodrymonia albinomarginata Schintlmeister, 2007, Syntypistis wunna (Schintlmeister, 1997), S. scensus (Schintlmeister, 1997), Harpyia nadiae Morozov, 2013, Hexafrenum viola (Schintlmeister, 1997), Rachiades lichenicolor siamensis Sugi, 1993, Pheosiopsis norina Schintlmeister, 1989, and Periphalera spadixa Wu & Fang, 2003; and (3) one genus for the first time from India: Rachiades Kiriakoff, 1967. Thus, the present study updates the Indian Notodontidae richness to a total of 281 species (including nominotypical subspecies) and 16 subspecies under 120 genera. Here, we provide species diagnoses along with habitus, and genitalia images for each of these newly recorded species.
