Key to species of Maiestas from Pakistan Note. Maiestas setosa is excluded from the key due to the poor original description and figures. M. pruthii, described from Pakistan, is included but known only from Indian material (see under M. pruthii remarks) while two un-named species (see Maiestas spp.) would also key out to this couplet. 1. Overall color dark brown; forewing with sub-basal and subapical irregular white transverse band (Fig. 1A)..................................................................................................... M. albomaculata - Color not as above (Figs 2A, 3A)......................................................................... 2 2. Crown, face and thorax with black patches (Fig. 2A–D).............................................. M. maculata - Crown, face and thorax without black patches............................................................... 3 3. Forewing with extra cross-veins, at least in clavus (Fig. 7B)................................................... 4 - Forewing without extra cross-veins....................................................................... 5 4. Aedeagus with a large subapical ventral process (Fig. 1E)............................................... M. indica - Aedeagus with a short apical ventral process (Figs 4J–L)............................................... M. pruthii 5. Aedeagus with pair of short lateral processes (Figs 6G–H)........................................... M. trispinosa - Aedeagus without lateral processes....................................................................... 6 6. Aedeagus in lateral view similar in width in distal half (Fig. 4D)...................................... M. subviridis - Aedeagus in lateral view evenly tapered from base to apex.................................................... 7 7. Style apophysis broadest sub-basally (Fig. 5L); aedeagal shaft in lateral view not sinuate (Fig. 5H)...............
