cJ?. Pilifer short, with pale hairs aiul scales. The buff 3ellow colour of 

 tlie costal and distal margioal areas of the hindwiuo; above distinguish this species 

 from all the others. The anal spots of the hindwing are large and merged togetiier 

 to an 8-shaped mark, ver}- rarely separated. 



S . Tenth tergite as narrow in middle as in amlwinicus, mesial sinus deep and 

 very narrow, the lobes ladle-shaped, not notched ; lobe of steruite nearly as in 

 n. XXVI. f. It, the narrowed ajiical jiart longer, jiointed, curved upwards. Dorso- 

 apical lobe of clasper not always sharply pointed, shorter than in di/ras, more 

 resembling that of quercus ; harpe stout distally, denticulate ; processes above 

 penis-slieath short, acute, prismatical, granulosa. 



2. Proximal part of vaginal jdate transverse, rounded jiro.ximally and laterally, 

 the edges projecting, sides raised into a short cone, edge in front of vaginal orifice 

 truncate, feebly undulate. 



Larva not sufficiently described ; all green. — Food-plant : 7V//a eorthitd. 



Chrysalis not described. 



Hub. East Siberia : Ussuri : Wladiwostock ; according to Bartel also Trans- 

 baikalia. 



Two broods, the second doubtless irregular. 



Why do Standinger & Rebel query the occuirence in the Amur country ? 



Bremer says that this species has some resemblance to indicuK according to 

 Walker's description ; Bartel also states that it resembles indicus somewhat in 

 pattern. Tliis is quite correct, inasmuch as all the species of Mnnimha are similar 

 in jtattern ; there is, however, no special resemblance whatever between iiuliciis 

 and maacki. The latter comes nearest to q/teiriis i\n(\ jcDikoirskii.

c? ? . Pilifer short, with a dense brush of hair-scales, the two processes close 

 together ; tongue without fringe, sometimes reduced to two tubercles. Seriated 

 ciliae of the ? -antenna as long as the segments. Variable in the tint of the ground-
