Hctcrucera from China, Jcvpan, and Corca. 509 



fuscons-brown ante- and postinedial lines, the first oblique and the 

 second curved about the middle ; a subniarginal series of pale spots 

 ringed with pale fuscous ; discal lunule blackish. 

 Expanse 30-38 millims. 



Five specimens from Kiukiang', four from Ningpo, and 

 two from the province of Kwei-cbow ; both sexes are 

 represented. June and July. 



Habitat. Central, Eastern, and Western China. 



Most nearly allied to Z. Jlavomaculata, Stand., but darker 

 in colour ; all the transverse lines are bolder and those on 

 the secondaries differently shaped. 



1389. Zctlies dcntilineata, sp. n. 



Differs from Z. trilineata in being rather greyer in colour, especially 

 on the secondaries. The anteraedial line of primaries is curved and 

 .slightly indented below the costa, the postmedial line is more deeply 

 elbowed, and the costal triangle is whiter ; all the wings have a 

 blackish, highly dentate, subniarginal line, which is clearly defined 

 on both surfaces ; the fringes of the secondaries are hardly crenulate. 



Expanse 40 millini. 



One female specimen from Wa-ssu-kow, taken in June. 

 Habitat. Western China. 



1390. Zethes indcntalis. 



Saraca indcntalis. Leech, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1889, p. 

 567, pi. lii, fig. 4. 



I obtained three specimens in Satsuma in May, three at 

 Nagasaki in June, and one at Gensan in July. One 

 example was taken by native collector at Hakodate and 

 one at Ningpo, both in the month of June. 



Staudinger considers that his Z. {Pangrapta) suarcola is 

 identical with my indcntalis. If his figure (Rom. sur. 

 Lep., vi, pi. xiii, fig. 8) is correct the shape of the pale 

 markings on the costa towards apex is quite different, as 

 also is the angulation and character of the postmedial 

 band. The ground-colour of my insect is much paler than 

 that of suaveola. 



In indentalis the outer margins of all the winsfs are 

 strongly angled in the male and less so in the female. 



Distribution. KiusHiu ; Yesso ; Corea ; Western 

 China.
