12 EEIASMIA; CAMPYLOTES. By Dr. K. Jordan. 



Hindwing white, with broad black marginal band whicli i.s somewhat washed with blue and is ill-defined 

 posteriorly; median veins blackish. Underside white and black, base of forewing blue. — West Ghiiia, very 

 common, in June and Jul}'. 



reticularis. C. reticularis fjeech (2e). Forewing j'ellowish white, the veins black, black basal streaks between 



tlie veins: distal margin and two somewhat ill-defined bands also black. Hindwing with black marginal 

 band which extends to 2. median, the veins being green within this band. — Ta-tsien-lu, West China; a ? 

 in coll. Leech. 



remota. C. remota Walk. (2f). Greenish black; body, antenna, and veins of upperside of forewing metallic 



blue, underside also with blue shimmer here and there on the black portions of the wing. Forewing with 

 an almost straight white band. Hindwing white from base to apex of cell, this area interrupted by an ill- 

 defined, cenirallj^ usually incom])lete, black band which emanates from the centre of the costal margin, 

 broadl}- joining the marginal band before anal angle; this median band sometimes much widened. — A 

 rather connnon species, which is found from West China to Corea and Yezo. 



syfanica. C. syfanica Obertli. (2f). A small greenish black species. \'eins of forewing whitish; a straight 



white band not far from base, a second one, somewhat undulate, fiom the centre of the costal margin. 

 Hindwing white, with a posteriarly narrowing black marginal band. Collar whitish yellow; abdomen ringed 

 with white above, all white below. — Ta-tsien-lu, West China. 



tliihetana. C. thibetana Olicrlli. (2f). Similar to the preceding, smaller, forewing with onl}' one white band, 



which is forked anteriorly. — Ta-tsien-lu, West China, Gan-ssu. 



alpherakyi. C. alptierakyi Lri'cli (2f). Like thibrtaiia , but as large as .•<i/fn)iic<i; forewing metallic green, the 



veins not whitish, the white band broader, not Y-shaped. — In We.st China near the Tibetan frontier; 

 6 <f(f and 3 ?? were found at an altitude of 3000 m ; June and July. 



The last three small forms are perhaps only varieties of one species. 



13. Genus: Krasiiiia Hope. 



Frons strongly projecting. Antenna pectinated in cf and ?. Cross-vein in both wings feebly angulate; 

 hind angle of cell of hindwing projecting farther distad than the obtuse upper angle ; 2. and 3. radials of 

 forewing on an long stalk, strongly curved. — Larva {of pi(/vlt(//a) velvet}' black; tubercles pale red; a 

 rectangular dorsal yellow patch extending over two segments. — Large insects, with black wings which 

 are marked with white and metallic green-blue. The forewing bears a dirty dark yellow band in basal 

 half; a costal spot of the same colour hi the proximal tliird of the hindwing. — North India to 

 South Japan. 



I'J. pulchella Hope Hindwing with a broad white band which narrows anteriorly, occupying 



|)osteriorl\' almost the whole margin. The species was described from Indian specimens. — China is 



chinensis. inhabited by a special subspecies which we designate chinensis ^ithap. nor. (2g). The black of both wings 



is more extended, the white and blue-green markings therefore being reduced. Common in West China, 



in June and Jul}'. 



sangaica. E. sangaica Moore (2g). Similar to the preceding species, but the hindwing for the greater part 



black, the broad white band oi pulchella being represented only by some green-edged spots. — Shanghai, 

 Kagoshima, Kiushiu; in June. 



14. Genus: Campylotes Westtc. 



Frons only slightly prominent. The veins branching off from the cell in both wings nearly all 

 strongly curved, being partly undulate; 2. to 5. subcostal of forewing stalked together, also the 2. and 

 3. radials and 1. median; in hindwing 2. and 3. radials long-stalked; cross-vein feebly curved, in both 

 wings the lower angle of cell more projecting than the olituse upper angle. — North India and China. 

 Some species occurring at very higt altitude, 3000 m. Wings with red and yellow longitudinal stripes and 

 white or yellow subapical spots. 



histrionicus. C. histrionicus Westw. (2g). Shoulder pale yelloAV. Comma-spots of hindwing not interrupted. — 



Afghanistan, North-India, and West-China. 



romanovi. C. romanovi Leech (2 h). Shoulder with red spot; body otherwise greenish black. Streaks of 



forewing and comma-spots of hindwing not interrupted by a black band. — A frequent species in West 

 China, near Mupin and Washan, in June.
