Phalera fuscescens, Butl., Trans. Ent. Soc., 1881, p. 597. 
Phalera staudingeri, Alph., Iris, viii, p. 187 (1895). 
There were two specimens, from Oiwake and Fujisan, 
in Pryer’s collection and I obtained one example at Gensan 
in July. 
Alphéraky describes this species from Amurland under 
the name staudingeri; his excellent description of the 
latter exactly applies to P. fuscescens, Butl., which he was 
evidently not acquainted with as he does not refer to it.
