 China (Cramer). 



It seems improbable that this is a variety of Minexis, as the po- 

 sition of the central band and the ocelli of the underside are 

 quite different. It is just possible that Cramer's figure is from 

 a broken specimen, which might account for these differences ; but 

 there is still a distinctive character in the dark colour of the 

 ocellus-irides and the different form of the marginal lines, Mr. 

 Moore has considered some specimens of Mineus to represent Dnisia.
