Issue Date

4-2010

Abstract

Another new paurocephaline genus, Paurotega, and its type species, P. zamboangensis, n. sp. are described and illustrated. Possible close affinity of this genus to Anomoterga Klyver and Paurocephala Crawford based on morphological, behavioral attributes and host plant associations is discussed. Synonymy of the genus Homalacephala Yang and Li with Anomoterga and the transfer of an indian species, Paurocephala rusellae Mathur, to Pauroterga are proposed.
