Chelis pardalina is a species of tiger moth genus in the family Erebidae, known from deserts in Central Asia: Kara-Kum, Ustyurt and Sary-Kum. The species was first described by Rudolf Püngeler in 1898.[1] Females are brachypterous.
This species was previously the sole member of the genus Tancrea, but was moved to Chelis along with the species of six other genera as a result of phylogenetic research published in 2016.[2]
