Hetcroccra from Chimi, Jcvpan, and Corca. 21 



Described from a specimen, probably from Yokohama, 

 in Fryer's collection ; I took one example at Oiwake in 

 October. 



This species seems to be nearly allied to " Cosmia " 

 trcopezoidcs, Stand., from Central Asia, but among other 

 differences is the shape of the reniform stigma. Staudinger 

 (Rom. sur. Lep., vi, p. 509) states that he has an example 

 of " C." trcqjczoidcs from Amnrland, and that it differs from 

 the Central Asian t^^pe in being rather darker brown above 

 and yellowish instead of white on the under surface. In 

 these characters it agrees with my cdcntata and may 

 possibly be an example of this species.
