Type species. Padraona tranquilla Swinhoe, 1905 View in CoL .
Definition. The lineage with Kobrona tranquilla (Swinhoe, 1905) , comb. nov. represents a new subgenus due to its phenotypic distinction that caused its former misclassification as Arrhenes Mabille, 1904 View in CoL (type species Pamphila marnas Felder, 1860 View in CoL ) (see above) and notable genetic differentiation ( Fig. 44), e.g., COI barcodes of the type species of Kobrona Evans, 1935 View in CoL , K. kobros (Plötz, 1885) (type locality in Aru), and K. tranquilla differ by 7% (46 bp). This new subgenus keys to L. 6.6 in Evans (1949) and differs from its relatives by a combination of the following characters: not flattened antennal club; relatively long antennae, about ½ of the costal margin; rather thin 3 rd segment of palpi, not as narrow as in Ocybadistes Heron, 1894 View in CoL (type species Ocybadistes walkeri Heron, 1894 View in CoL ) but not a stout as in other Kobrona View in CoL ; undivided (but with side points) uncus, terminally rectangular and flat, with lateral margins nearly parallel in dorsal view and flat; expanded dorsad ampulla of the valva, with concave dorsal margin posteriad, weakly developed, knob-like harpe armed with small spines; narrow and irregular stigma in males between veins M 3 and 1A+2A in the middle of the forewing; and pale-brown (not orange) and narrow spots on wings ( Fig. 45b). In DNA, a combination of the following characters is diagnostic in the nuclear genome: aly814.12.10:G51A, aly1313.18.2:T943C, aly1313.18.2:T972C, aly1313.18.2:A978C, aly235.6. 3:T141C, and COI barcode: T133C, T287C, T382A, T418C, A474G, A526T.
Etymology. This name combines the previous and current genus names of these species: Arrh [enes] + [Kobr] ona and is a feminine noun in the nominative singular.
Species included. Only the type species (i.e., Padraona tranquilla Swinhoe, 1905 ).
Parent taxon. Genus Kobrona Evans, 1935 .
