*21. Somatina rosacca aiiaomiea Prout, iiov. subsp. — o 31 mm, 

 $ 29 mm. Much ]>aler thau typicai rosacea Svvinh. from the Khasi Hüls, 

 the rosy hue almost entireiy lackiug, the coloration being about as in 

 pale anthoiiliilaUt Guen.: hiud angle of forewing without black spols. 

 Abdomen dorsaily whitish, not (as in rosacea) rosy with white spots.

22. Synofiiodcs liistnonaria ornata Bastelberger (= lentigiiiosaria 

 Wileman, nov. syn.). — 1 d" 1 ?, 8hisha, May -June 1912; 2 $. Suisharyo, 

 February 1912; 1 Vi Kankau (Koshun) 1912; 1 $, Karapin (Japan). 

 August 1911, Both Bastelberger (Ent. Zeit. Stuttg. XXIII, p. 34, 39, 

 1909) and Wileman (Entomologist XLIV, p. 401. 1911) regarded this 

 as a separate species, the latter placing it in Anixodes. I consider it 

 mereiy a deeply coloured local race of hisfrionaria Swinh., from Assam, 

 with the dark shading in the distal area more continnous. The strncture 

 is identical, areole single. 2°^' subcostal of hindwing usually very shortly 

 stalked. In Injriaria Walk., to which Hampson wrongly sunk hislrio- 

 naria, the areole is double, the 2°^ sidicostal rarely if ever stalked.

*24. Timaiidra convoetaria Walk. — G J, .") v, Suisharyo, Kosempo, 

 Alikang, Kanshirei, Kankau and Taihorinsho. Variable in size. Hamp- 

 son sinks this to amaia L.; it is a good species, nearer to his corre- 

 spomlens. 



*2r, Probh^psis doliaria alhidior Warr. — 1 ,S, Kosempo, October 

 1911, expaiiding 3() mm. This form was described from Kalu and 

 Ichang and 1 have seen similar examples from the Khasi Hills and 

 from Satsuma. Perhaps (at least in some localities) it is nothing more 

 than an aberration of dcliaria Guen. 



2(). .Viititryi;odos divisaria perturbata Prout. iu)v. subsp. — 39; 

 32 34 mm. llather smaller than dirimria divisaria Walk, from India, 

 termen geiu>rally rather less strongly orenulate, cell of forewing slightly 

 shorter: the green patch distally to the cell smalUn-. su})apical patches 

 on an average smaller and nu)rc separaied, 1 he dai'k line pro.xinuilly to 

 these not sinuous; a curved postmedian line of dots visible about midway 

 between the dark line and the green patches; the reddish submarginal 

 B})ot on R^ of hindwing usually very small. Areole of forewing closed
