but inconspicuous. Fringes brown, preceded by a black dotted line. Under 

 surface pale brown, with black discal spot and central line. Expanse,

Four male and one female specimens taken by myself at

BOAKMIA FUSCOMARGINAEIA, Sp. n. 

 5 . Primaries pale grey, rather darker within the basal angulated 

 blackish line ; the outer portion of the wing, beyond the angulated and 

 elbowed black second line, is clouded with brown ; pale submarginal line 

 interrupted ; discal spot black ; central shade ill-defined, distinct only on the 

 costa ; a dark brown streak from basal line runs just above submedian 

 nervure to outer margin, and there are two shorter streaks of the same 

 colour from the elbow of second line. Secondaries pale grey ; the outer 

 third brown, limited by an undulated black line ; submarginal line white 

 and waved ; discal spot rather small, black. On the under surface all the 

 wings are pale grey within the blackish central line and fuscous beyond ; 

 discal spot black ; apex of primaries whitish. Expanse, 47 mm. 



One specimen captured by Mr. Smith, at Hakone, in August. 



Allied to B. corearia, but the lines on the upper surface are 

 differently angulated, and the markings of the under surface 

 distinguish it at once. 



BOARMIA FUSCARIA, Sp. n. 

 Primaries dark brown, with some large patches of pale brown on the 

 outer third ; first line oblique, black, preceded by a pale brown spot on the 

 costa and some longitudinal streaks of the same colour on the nervures ; 

 second line undulated, black, bordered with pale brown. Secondaries pale 

 brown, clouded with darker brown, especially on the outermargin and central 

 area ; the central transverse black line is preceded bj' a dusky shade, bordered 

 outwardly with pale brown. Fringes pale brown, chequered with darker, 

 with an interrupted black line at their base. Under surface brown, outer 

 third of all the wings slightly darker ; on the costa of primaries are two dark 

 brown spots placed on a pale brown patch — from the first of these a narrow 

 brown fascia runs to inner margin, and beyond the second a narrow pale 

 brown band limits the darker outer third ; these lines are continued on the 

 secondaries. Head and thorax dark brown ; abdomen paler brown, with a 

 whitish transverse dorsal stripe at the base, followed by one of dark brown. 

 Expanse, 3' 50 mm. ; $ 56—60 mm.

BOARMIA ORNATARIA, Sp. n. 



(? . Greenish grey, sprinkled with yellowish scales ; primaries traversed by 

 two ill-defined black lines and a distinct black central band, all commencing 

 as conspicuous black spots on the costa ; before the pale and interrupted 

 submarginal line is a yellowish narrow fascia, bordered externally with rusty 

 brown, commencing from the lower end of a black mark on the costa ; beyond 

 this the marginal area is variegated with some longitudinal streaks of 

 yellowish and dark brown, continued through the grey fringes ; the inner 

 margin has a rusty brown streak ; discal spot small, black. Secondaries 

 have a blackish transverse central shade, enclosing a black discal spot, 

 followed by a pale-edged serrated black line ; yellowish fascia as on primaries; 

 a series of black lunules precede the fringes. Under surface yellowish- 

 fuscous ; the costa of primaries has two black spots, and from these originatp
