Five examples taken by my native collector at Gensan 

 in August and September ; I have also received four 

 specimens from Mr. Manley of Yokohama, and there Avas 

 one in Pryer's collection. 



Dr. Staudinger seems to take exception to my having 

 referred this species to Perigea and creates the new genus 

 Phalacra for its reception. He is, however, unable to 

 suggest the proper position for this genus and places it 

 after species which he puts, with single and double query 

 marks, in Erastria, thus indicating that he himself is not 

 at all certain about the generic location of those species. As 

 pointed out under Karana gemmifera he prefers to place 

 a species in one of two doubtful genera rather than in a 

 genus which has been purposely founded for it. 



His own classification in the "Catalog" has long been 

 obsolete, but entomologists have now the advantage of the 

 able work of Sir George F. Hampson, and this latter is 

 adopted with slight modifications in the present paper.
