Pomasia denticlathrata is a moth in the family Geometridae first described by William Warren in 1893.[1] It is found in India (it was described from the Naga Hills),[2] Japan[3] and Taiwan.
The wingspan is about 18 to 21 millimetres (0.71 to 0.83 in). Adults are pale yellow, the forewings with about fifteen waved red-brown lines connected by patches of red brown. The hindwings have about eight waved red-brown lines. Both wings have a waved marginal line.[4]
The larvae have been recorded feeding on Schoepfia species.[5]
