Lectotypes are designated for Panthea leucomelana Morrison and Panthea furcilla (Packard), and a neotype is designated for Platycerura gigantea French. Panthea pallescens McDunnough, syn. n. is synonymized with P. furcilla (Packard), P. acronyctoides albosuffusa McDunnough, syn. n. is synonymized with P. acronyctoides acronyctoides Walker, P. portlandia Grote, syn. n., P. portlandia suffusa McDunnough, syn. n., and P. angelica (Dyar), syn. n. are all synonymized with P. virginarius (Grote). Adults of all New World Panthea are illustrated in color, and black and white illustrations of the genitalia of both sexes are provided where known.
