*116 Eimoinos aenigma Prout, uov. spec. — $, 62 min. Palpus 

 short, tongue slight. Forewiiig witli S('^ ancl 8('^ coincident, separate 

 from C; terineu with deep, seniicircular excision between SC* and >SC^ 

 (which are widely separated), a sharji tooth at SC^, a smaller excision 

 before R^, terinen after R^ very oblique, with very slight teeth at 

 veins; light brown (brighter brown beneath), finely irrorated with 

 sparse blackish dusting; first line from costa at less than 3 mm, obHque 

 distad, strongly bent in cell, becoming very indistinct; a large oval, 

 pale-centred black cell-spot; second line rather thick, dark brown, 

 from Costa 6 mm before apex, slightly exciirved in its anterior part; 

 round the subapical excision a narrow dark shade, vagiie pale-edged 

 proximally. Hindwing with apex rather prominent, slight excisions 

 between the veins in anterior half, mere minute teeth at the vein-ends 

 in posterior half; concolorous with forewing, no cell-spot, an antemedian 

 line, curved near costa, then straight, a very slightly curved, very 

 indistinct postmedian. Underside more darkly niarked, forewing in 

 addition with a median line proximally to the cell-spot, postmedian 

 thickened and blackened anteriorly; hindwing with a small cell-spot 

 as well as the two (liere conspicuous) lines; both wings with indi.stinct, 

 irregulär pale line quite near the termen. Head and body concolorous 

 with wings, only with a dark grey band on Vertex between the antennae; 

 base of antenna and parts of legs rather strongly dark-marked. »Suisharj^o 

 December 1911, only the type $ known. A somewhat anomalous species, 

 which I at first supposed to be an aberrant Hyposidra. Probably inter- 

 mediate between Ennomos and Gonodontis, with nearly the facies of 

 the latter but longer- winged, distal excisions deeper; median spurs 

 wanting. Antenna with projecting teeth of scale.<. Tibiae and tarsi not 

 hairy nor strongly spinös;-. 



*117. Garaeus apicata Moore (var. ?). — 6 r?, Shisha, M^iy-June 

 1912. Very constant, all of a violet tint, the forewing strongly suffused 

 with reddish or red-brown in the entire basal area, costal half of central 

 and, more or less, of distal area and proximal half of distal area, the 

 subapical mark pale violet or violet-whitish; hindwing with two small 

 diaphanous spots, oneon each side of vein M^ close to ito base, equidistant 

 from termen, a rather distinct olivaceous shade between these spots 

 and the postmedian line and continuing to the inner niargin. It is 

 remarkable that Bastelberger describes (Ent. Rundschau XXVIII, 

 p. 22) another equally constant but evidently quite different form from 

 another part of Formosa (smaller, less red, more variegated, the lines 

 white, etc.) as G. formosanus. It may be a separate species, but the 

 wing-form of Sauter's specimens appears slightlj^ intermediate and 1
