The wing pattern of P. spurcataria is almost identical to that of P. crypta (Nepal), except that the postmedial line on the hindwing is less serrate than in P. crypta. The male genitalia share a very slender uncus and median process of the gnathos with P. crypta, while the median process of the gnathos is much shorter; this process is much longer than the uncus in P. crypta, while shorter in P. spurcataria; the eighth sternite of the male is distinctive in having a pair of processes, which are absent in all the other species whose male genitalia are known in this genus. The female genitalia share a distinct lamella postvaginalis with P. crypta, which consists of a pair of small blunt processes, rather than a semicircular sclerite as in other species; the antrum is longer; and the ductus bursae longer and narrower than those of P. crypta. Distribution. China (Taiwan, Guangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan, Tibet), India, Nepal.
