334 COLADENIA; SAEANGESA. By P. Mabille. 



nymphalis. S. nymphalis Spr. (84 d). This large sijecies differs from the Indian gopala Moore in the white 



spot of the cell being reniforni and extending right across the cell to its hinduiargin. Palpi yellow. 

 Amurland and almost the whole of North and Central China. 



diversa. S. diversa Leech (84 e). Wings black; forewing witli three apical spots forming a triangle and beloM- 



them two more, very small, spots, a white median band commencing with two isolated spots in cellule 4 

 and 5 and being continued by three large united spots. This band is continued on the hindwing, where 

 it is broader. The fringes are blackish. The underside is similar in markings, but there are two con- 

 spicuous black dots on the hindwing anteriorly on the outer side of the white band towards the margin. 

 The palpi are yellow. Central China. 



sinica. S. sinica Fldr. Wings deep black. On the forewing three prominent apical spots and a median 



band of fine separated spots, all white; on the hindwing a rather narrow white band, bearing at its 

 proximal edge five black dots. Fringes white, interrupted by the black extremities of the veins. On the 

 underside the base of the hindwing is pale grey-blue, with three black spots placed in a triangle; the row 

 of black dots is situated within the white band, which is wider than above. Palpi white; body black. — 



moorci. moorei Mab. (84 e) is a form with two additional white dots below the apical ones. West and Central 

 China; moorei at Mupin (Sze-chuen). 



ieihys. S. tethys Men. (84 f). Wings deep black. On the forewing a median band of five spots, and three 



apical spots, often followed by two smaller ones. Hindwing black, with a narrow grey macular band, 

 which is often diffuse above, but always distinct beneath. Fringes white. Body black, with the palpi 

 and under surface blue. Amur, Japan, North China. 



8. Genus: Colaclenia Moore. 



Club of antenna strong and cur\ed at the apex. Palpi porrect. Distal margin of the hindwing 

 sinuous. Hindtibia with two pairs of spurs and a brush of long hairs. 



(fan. C. dan F. Eed-brown, with three apical spots and a median band of six yellowish spots, the cell- 



spot the largest, distally excised in arc-shape; near the body two small transparent dots, which are often 

 hardly visible. The hindAving bears two l)rown macular bands on the disc, and the fringes are dirty 

 fatih. white between the veins. Hindwing beneath paler. — fatih Roll, is only a lighter, more greyish, form, 

 dea. which moreover is often larger. — ab. dea Leech (84 f) are specimens which are larger than the ordinary 

 form and differ in the transparent spots being larger and closer together and in the markings being 

 lighter, pale yellow, especially on the hindwing, Avhere the yellow transverse bands are more prominent 

 and better defined. This form, which is probably seasonal, appears to be rather widely distributed in the 

 valleys of the North- Western Himalayas. 



vitrea. C. vitrea Leech (84 f). Wings greyish black. On the forewing three apical spots followed by two 



°'- additional less pale spots; moreover, a median band of six white transparent spots or dots, two of these 



spots being very large, namely the one situated in the cell and the one between veins 2 and 8; the four 

 other spots are mere dots, one being placed at the costa, one above and one below the second large spot, 

 and the fourth isolated on vein 1. Hindwing with a dot at the costal margin, and two transparent white 

 macular bands in the centre near each other, the first band consisting of three spots and a dot, the 

 latter placed at the edge of the abdominal area, the second band being much narrower and composed of 

 six dots placed close together. Underside similar, but paler, with whitish interrupted fringes. Ta-tsien-lu, 

 West China. 



moeniata. C. moeniata Obcrth. (84 f). This species is very close to vitrea. It differs in the wings being pale 



ashy grey, especially the hindwing, and in the spots of the second band of the hindwing being indicated 

 by black dashes or dots, only the two central ones being transparent. Fringes uniformly whitish grey. — 

 I suspect that moeniata is only a form of ritrea in spite of the different fringes. The first specimen was 

 obtained in Sze-chuen (at Ta-tsien-lu), and the second at Menia, which is not far off. I have received 

 the insect also from TaU in Yunnan. 



9. Genus: Sarangesa Moore. 



Club of antenna of median length, a little curved. Second segment of palpus sub-erect. The second 

 division of the median vein of the forewing is slightly curved, and the distal margin of the hindwing 

 sinuous. The hindtibia bears two pairs of spurs and a brush of hair. 



purendra. S. purendra Moore. Wings black. Forewing with white spots at the apex and at the end of the cell, 



also with a large white spot in the second marginal cell. The species is easily distinguished by this spot
