Specifically, the hindwings have the costal margin with a shallow inward notch in the middle, flanked by rough projecting scales that give it an excavated appearance. This characteristic is reminiscent of the forewings in the genus + +Acria + +, but in + +Paraxenoacria + + +gen. nov. + +, this feature is found on the hindwings instead. When at rest the rough scales of the hindwings protrude outward, a trait not observed in any previously known genera within this family. + + +In resting posture, this new genus superficially looks like + +Acria + +( +Fig 31 +). However, despite its resemblance in wing morphology and genitalia features of male to the genus + +Acria + +, + +Paraxenoacria + + +gen. nov. + +can be distinguished from the former in the following attributes: + + +● The forewings have vein R +4 +present (absent in + +Acria + +). + + +● Forewings without any discal tuft of scales (usually seen in many + +Acria +species + +). + + +● The male genitalia exhibit a flattened uncus (bifurcated fork like in + +Acria + +), with a pair of tongue-like setose socii laterally. + + +● The gnathos is characterized by a mesial, spinose bulb followed by distinct downwardly curved digitiform projections on the tegumen, a feature absent not only in + +Acria + +but also in other genera belonging to +Peleopodidae +and allied families such as +Oecophoridae +and +Depressariidae +. + +● The valva is short, broad, multilobed, and adorned with strong spines on the distal saccular lobe. + +These distinguishing features underscore + +Paraxenoacria + + +gen. nov. + +as a unique and separate genus within the family +Peleopodidae +, distinct from + +Acria + +and other known genera. This genus is tentatively assigned to the subfamily +Acriinae +due to its strong resemblance with the genus + +Acria + +but requires further taxonomic investigations. + + +Furthermore, this genus can be confused with several other genera of +Peleopodidae +and allied families especially due to the similarly shaped forewings and a depressed resting posture, but it can be separated from those genera in the following ways: + + +● From the genus + +Antoloea +Meyrick, 1914 + +, this new genus is distinct due to: the presence of excavation on hindwings; lack of discal erect scale tufts on forewings; forewings with the veins CuA +1 +and M +3 +separated basally (stalked in + +Antoloea + +); the second joint of the labial palps smoothly scaled (roughened anteriorly towards apex in + +Antoloea + +). + + +● From the genus + +Durrantia +Busck, 1908 + +, it differs in: the presence of excavation on hindwings (the costal margin is nearly straight in + +Durrantia + +); the labial palps with third joint similar in length to the second (short in + +Durrantia + +); male antennae filiform (finely serrate and pubescent in + +Durrantia + +); forewings with the veins R +4 +and R +5 +ending in the apex (in the costa in + +Durrantia + +); furthermore, + +Durrantia +species + +are restricted to the new world. + + +● From the genus + +Peleopoda +Zeller, 1877 + +, it differs by: the distribution range in the oriental tropics (whereas + +Peleopoda + +is a neotropical genus); labial palps with the second joint smooth (roughly scaled in + +Peleopoda + +); male genitalia with the lateral digitiform projections (lacking in + +Peleopoda + +); and complex valva (somewhat simple, elongated, and with moderate to large lobes from costae frequently overlapping medially in + +Peleopoda + +) (as per +Duckworth 1970 +). + + +● On the other hand, this new genus can also be confused with the genus + +Scythropiodes +Matsumura, 1931 + +but in the latter genus, the uncus is absent, gnathos hooked, and the transtilla and juxta often with lateral lobes (Wang & Li 2016). + + +● Besides, it can also be confused with the genus + +Odites +Walsingham, 1891 + +, however along with + +Odites + +the genera within +Oditinae +are characterized by the socius being absent and gnathos with smooth hooks, unlike this new genus. + + +● On the other hand, unlike the +Oditinae +genus + +Epimactis +Meyrick, 1907 + +, this new genus has the hindwings with costal excavation; labial palps with third joint similar in length to the second (shorter in + +Epimactis + +); and the genitalia clearly distinct. + + +● Additionally, it also looks very similar to + +Machimia + +Clemens, +1860 + + +in the shape and pattern of forewings as well as in resting posture, but distinct in having the second joint of labial palps being smooth (rough in + +Machimia + +); apex of forewings being rounded; and without excavation in the hindwings. Moreover, the geographic distribution of + +Machimia + +differs from + +Paraxenoacria + + +gen. nov. + +. + + +So far, the excavation on the hindwings can be seen in the New World Depressariid genus + +Trycherodes +Meyrick, 1914 + +; but that genus has shallow depression in the middle of forewing costal margin as well; and the CuA +1 +vein originating from M +3 +on forewings (separated in + +Paraxenoacria + + +gen. nov. + +). + + +Overall, excavated hindwings, the wing venation, presence of lateral downwardly curved digitiform projections on tegumen (so far neither any Peleopodid genera nor any other in the allied families such as +Oecophoridae +and +Depressariidae +bear this feature), the shape of valva and the presence of clavus on it clearly set this genus apart from any of the +Peleopodidae +genera and allied ones in related families. + + + + +Distribution: +Though it is is being described from +Bangladesh +, the analysis of the observations on various citizen science platforms suggests the presence of this genus throughout South-East Asia.
