Primaries brown, with a slight j^urple reflection ; on the disc of the wing 

 are two round white spots, bordered by a darker shade of the ground colour, 

 the smaller of the two being nearest the base of wing. Secondaries light 

 brown, subhyaline, with a dark central line ; outer marginal area of the wing 

 darker than the rest. Under surface a paler reproduction of upper. Legs 

 whitish, except anterior femora, which are brown. Expanse, $ 30 mm., J 

 24 mm. 



I took a fine series of this species in May, 1886, at Nagasaki 

 and in Satsuma. I have also received it from Gensan, Corea. 



Cataprosopus pauperalis, n. sp., Plate IV., fig. 11. 



$. Light brown, sprinkled with darker scales, and having a purplish 

 reflection. Primaries darker brown along the basal portion of the costa, wing 

 traversed by curved basal and wavy central lines ; fringes chocolate brown. 

 Under surface ; colour much the same as above, with a dark discal spot and 

 faint reddish central line; head and palpi chocolate brown. Expanse, 26 mm. 



This species was sent me by Mr. Manley, who took it in the 

 neighbourhood of Yokohama. 



Samia fumidalis, n. sp., Plate IV., fig. 8. 

 (^ . Primaries yellow, much clouded about the costa and outer margin 

 with fuscous-brown ; basal and deeply elbowed central lines blackish. Second- 

 aries yellow, clouded with fuscous-brown towards the outer margin, and with 

 a blackish, deeply elbowed central line. Under surface pale whity-brown, 

 clouded about the disc of primaries with fuscous-brown, discal spots and 

 central line darker. Expanse, 21 mm. 



I took this species at Nagasaki in May, 1886. 



PoLYTHLiPTA LiQuiDALis, n. sp., Plate III., fig. 8. 

 Hyaline with pearly reflections. Primaries with the base blackish, a 

 broad streak of pale chestnut along the inner margin, turns upwai'ds 

 abruptly, and terminates in a black curve before the inner angle, a wedge- 

 shaped band bordered with black runs from costa and joins the inner 

 marginal streak before the base ; occupying the apical area is a large patch of 

 dark brown clouded with blackish, and enclosing a white subcostal spot ; 

 stigma pale chestnut. Secondaries with a blackish discal spot, and row of 

 four spots along the outer margin, the 1st and 4th being much the largest ; at 

 outer angle is a pale brownish blotch, internally bordered with black, and 

 preceded by a blackish streak. Abdomen pale chestnut, legs white. Expanse, 

 44 mm. 



I took one $ example of this remarkable species at Gensan, 

 Corea, July, 1886. 



Cataclysta prodigalis, n. sp., Plate IV., fig. 16. 

 ^ . Primaries cliocolate brown, a large white patch on the inner margin, 

 a white basal line followed by a white central line cmwing abruptly to the 

 centre of the wing, then sharply to the inner margin, submarginal band

 with broad blackish brown basal and submarginal bands traversed by yellow 

 lines, margins orange bordered by narrow black lines ; under surface similar 

 but paler. Female rather darker than male. Expanse, <? 11mm., $ 12 mm. 



I took a nice series of this species at Gensan in July, also a 

 specimen at Tsuruga in the same month.
