Errata and Addenda to Vol. 2. 445 



S. leechi Rothsch. Like acrospila Feld. (9h), but the ground-colour lighter, more brown than black, leechi, 

 the yellow abdominal rings are broader, the vitreous spots tinged with yellow, the interspace above the sub- 

 median vein quite transparent yellow, only interrupted by a narrow transverse bar. — From the Wa-shan in 

 Western China. 



S. melanocera Hamps., from North China, not known to me. Recognisable by the entirely black mdanocera. 

 antennae. 



S. perixanthia Hamps. On page 39 we mentioned two localities for this species, Western China and Formosa. 

 Rothschild has recently differentiated two forms; he retains the name ;jejj.iT/H<AiV/. for the smaller form from 

 Formosa and names the considerably larger one from Western China sinensis. Our figure (9f) belongs to the nUiensis.

2'^ Genus: Kressa Walk. 



This genus is to be placed between Cery.v and Dysauxes, and contauis forty forms, all of which inhabit 

 the Indo-Australian and Ethiopian Regions. Only one species extends on to Palearctic territory. 



Eressa multigutta Walk. (= blanchardi Pouj.). This Syntomid, figured on plate 9 h, hihabits South muHvjnUa. 

 Tibet. It is at once distinguished from all other Palearctic Syntomids by the yellow abdominal belts being 

 interrupted by black dorsal spots. The home of this species is Further India rather than the Palearctic 

 Region. 



To Dysauxes punctata. — ochrea Mill, has the spots of the forewing yellow instead of whitish, orhrea. 

 — • — juncta Hafn. has confluent spots. juncia. 



— — kashmiriensis Rothsch. is larger, with broader wings; the light spots of the forewing and kashmiri- 

 the band of the hindwing are more extended than in true punctata. Goorais- Valley. i'mis. 



P. 44. behind cuculatella read (10 c) for (10 b). 



P. 45. behind scripta read (10 d) for (10 c). 



P. 49. 1. 24 from bottom Poecilonola read Poecinola. 



To Psilopepla margaritacea. For the figure of this essentially Indian species cf. Vol. 10, pi. 10, IS k. 



P. 58. 1. 1 1 from top. For celipoda read celidopa. 

 To Lyclene rubricosa Moore. For the figure of this almost exclusively Indian species and of the foi'm 

 ochracea cf. Vol. 10, pi. 17 i. 



P. 60, 1. 14 from bottom, for ab. fumosa read ab. brunnea. 



To Chionaema. For the numerous Indian species of this genus cf. Vol. 10, ph. 16 and 17. 



P. 69. To Lithosia nigripars Walk., cf. figure. Vol. 10, pi. 15 1. 



To Lith. vagesa Moore. The form innotata of this species is figured Vol. 10. pi. 14 k. 



P. 71. Eligma narcissus. As the result of recent investigations this genus is now placed among 

 the Noctuidae in the subfamily Eutelianae. It is therefore again dealt with in Vol. 3, p. 291. 



P. 72. Coscinia striata xanthoptera Oberth. While discussing this form recently, Oberthur men- 

 tioned an aberration in which the collar is absent; the specimen is a $. 



P. 72,1. 13 from top. Behind intermedia read (13 f) for (13 b). 

 Coscina cribraria. be rthIjr proposes a number of new names for forms of this species, among them . 

 inquinata and nevadensis for cotow-forms. A form resembling typical cribraria, but in which there are only nevadensis.

 In leucomelas, from Cantares, the ground-colour is darker at the outer margin and lighter towards the base. ieucomcla.i. 



— canigulensis looks like a small rippertii. aimgulen.^is. 



P. 73. Utetheisa thyter is not considered as a form of pulchella by Rothschild in Vol. 10. The black 

 spots of the forewing are mostly absent. — In semisignuta Spul. they are confined to the outer portion 

 of the forewing. — According to OBERTiriTR a new form must now be added in which the small black spots 

 in the median area of the forewing are absent. 



P. 75. Kerala macroptera Oberth. When dealing with this moth we pomted out that it would be 

 better placed with the Noctuids near the Cymbidae, but described it in the present volume in order to avoid 

 clashmg with Staudingbr's Catalogue. In the meantime Hampson has put the insect in the place suggested, 

 and we therefore describe it again among theNoctuids, and give a figure taken from nature (vol. 3, pi. 52 u.) 



— The same also applies to Pseudosterrha oranaria Luc.
