abstract
Faunistic studies of the genus Xanthodes Fabricius were carried out during 2014-15. During this study two species were documented from the genus i.e. X. albago and X. transversa, which were collected and reared on their respective host plants. The morphological characters and external genitalic attributes were studied in detail and supplemented with photographs.
