158. Antitype deliciosa (Oberth.). 



Folia venusta var. deliciosa Oberthiir, Bull. Soc. Entoiii. France 1907. p. 345 (Sebdou). 



Monsieur Oberthiir and others have treated this form as a subspecies of 

 argillaceaga Hiibn. {venusta Boisd.), bnt I am convinced it is a distinct species. A 

 certain number have the disc of the forewing strongly suffused with black ; for this 

 I propose the name ab. squamosa ab. nov. 



I received 48 cjcj and 5 ? ? from September, October, and November 1912- 

 1913 from Faroult ; and 12 c?c? and 1 ? of the ab squamosa from the same dates. 



159. Antitype germana sp. nov. 



<?. Allied to deliciosa, and very similar to the ab. squamosa at first sight, but 

 at once distinguished by the sooty thorax and the whitish cinnamon grey hindwing 

 with its central smear-like band of dark grey. 



Antennae dark brown ; head cinnamon buff; thorax sooty grey-black ; abdomen 

 cinnamon wood-grey powdered with sooty black. Forewing cinnamon rosy buff, 

 upper half of basal third of wing and disc irregularly black ; terminal line of 

 spots and some smears inside of it also black. Hindwing cinnamon whitish wood- 

 grey, a broad central smear band dark grey. 



? . Ground colour of forewing rosy cinnamon, hindwing dark grey. 



Length of forewing : c? 14-18 mm., ? 17-19 mm. 



Expanse : cf 34-42 mm., ? 40-44 mm.

 October 1913.
