Diagnostics of Perina nuda (F.) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae)

View through CrossRef
Clearwing tussock moths were collected from different parts of Tamil Nadu, India. The occurrence of Perina nuda (F.) has been documented with morphological studies. Male moths bear no resemblance to females, with almost hyaline forewing and hind wings drab grey to pale purplish grey with a hyaline patch at the apical angle of the hind wing. Females with capucine buff-coloured wings. Males have asymmetrical genitalia with pointed-finger shaped uncus. The species identity was confirmed through DNA barcodes submitted to GenBank (RKB004-21 and MZ540881). The molecular phylogeny revealed that it formed separate clade from the available P. nuda barcodes with a meagre 2% variation.
