Altha subnotata
Altha subnotata is a moth of the family Limacodidae first described by Francis Walker in 1865. It is found in Sri Lanka, India, Brazil, and Nepal.
Altha subnotata can be identified by its short and slight palpi and the lack of spurs on its mid and hind tibia. The head, thorax and abdomen of the moth are pure white, and its wings are broad and rounded. Its forewings are bright white with a black dot beyond the lower end of the cell and two dots are found on the outer margin below the apex. The underside with the cost of the forewing costa are black. Its hind wings are white with two black dots on the outer margin below apex.
