Male genitalia of A. chantrapatyae , sp. nov. (holotype). Thorax : Pronotal collar, tegulae, and mesonotum light brown to brown, each scale yellowish brown at tip; inner side of hind tibia with three tufts of hair pencils, first tuft orange white extending from outer most of tibial base to posterior 1/4, second tuft light brown arising from lower point beyond first tuft extending to mid length of tibia, third tuft dark brown, beneath the second tuft, arising next to second tuft ( Fig. 17 ). Forewing subrectangular, length 8.0–8.8 mm in males (n = 3) ( Figs. 1 , 4 , 15 ), costal margin regularly curved, basal half with costal strigulae light brown alternate with black streaks, apical half with well developed costal strigulae, greyish white separated by blackish streaks, with confluence narrow orange brown strip extending obliquely from near middle of costa to termen at R 5 , beneath with narrow oblique greyish line extending from near mid length of costa to near termen between M 1 and M 2 , wing apex with a dark brown spot, continued with narrow dark brown line extending downward to termen at M 2 , termen rather straight, rounded apex, ground color greyish brown, basal half mixed with irregular transverse striae, light brown to brown, apical half of wing with large patch, dark brown, extending curve from dorsum to termen, upper edge of patch arising from mid length of dorsum, extending slightly curve to middle of chorda then strongly curve to termen between M 2 and M 3 , lower edge arising from about apical 1/3 of dorsum, extending sinuately curved to base of CuA 1 , then extending irregularly to termen at CuA 2 , tornus greyish brown with a small and narrow crescent-shaped patch medially, dark brown; underside light brown with small white spots along costa and termen. Hindwing subtrapezoid ( Figs. 10 , 15 ), middle of costa gently curved, termen sinuate, dorsum rather straight from between CuP and 1A+2A to near 3A, ground color light brown, slightly paler to base, tornal area darker to brown, anal area between 1A+2A and anal margin whitish brown, anal margin folded and thickened with long and slender projecting lobe, basal 1/3 of 3A with a tuft of long hair pencils reaching to near the end of projecting lobe (wing slide) ( Fig. 15 ) but apical half inserted to folded projecting lobe (pinned specimen) ( Fig. 11 ), basal 2/3 of M 3 with row of dense, modified flattened scales, and with large elliptical patch of modified, rounded and appressed scales between CuA 1 and CuA 2 ( Figs. 12 , 16 ), fringe scales brown, slightly darker to dark brown between CuA 2 and 1A+2A, then greyish white from 1A+2A to projecting lobe; underside light brown, with large patch of long scales between CuP and 1A+2A extending from near wing base to near termen ( Fig. 13 ).

Abdominal segment VIII with groups of dense long setae anterolaterally, posterior margin of tergum VIII with large, rounded lobe differed from bilobe on posterior margin of sternum VIII ( Fig. 20 ). Male genitalia ( Fig. 21 ) with tegumen triangular, moderately high, with dense scale sockets laterally; uncus subtriangular, mod-erately rounded apex, slightly hook, with dense setae laterally; socii moderately large, subtriangular lobe, rounded apex, densely setose; gnathos arising from middle of tegumen, forming moderately large membranous band, sclero-tized at base; vinculum moderately sclerotized; juxta subpentagonal; caulis shot; anellus cup-liked; phallus rather shot, funnel-shaped, tapered to rounded apex; cornuti absent; valva long and slender, sinuate, rounded apex, dorsal and ventral margin rather parallel; sacculus with a small group of moderately dense, short setae basally, connected with row of shot setae along ventral margin reaching to moderately large group of long setae ventroapically, with a small group of shot setae on margin of basal opening medially; cucullus curve, margin parallel to rounded apex, densely setose, ventral half with strongly spines except apical 1/5, with group of dense, moderately long spines dorsobasally.
