java.awt.image.IndexColorModel (JDK 1.0)

This class is a ColorModel that determines the red, green, blue, and alpha values for a pixel by using the pixel value as an index into colormap arrays. If no array of alpha values is specified, all pixels are considered fully opaque, except for one optionally specified reserved value that is fully transparent. This color model is useful when working with image data that is defined in terms of a color map.

You should not need to instantiate any kind of ColorModel object unless you are processing image data that does not use the standard RGB color format.
