Heterocera from China, Japan, and Corea, 341 
Alphéraky records a large female taken at Ta-chien-lu, 
in June, which he says agrees with the typical form from 
India. 
As previously stated, var. sinica, Oberth., from the pro- 
vince of Kwei-chow (Kouy-Tchéou) is described as being 
smaller and whiter than typical /H. venosa. 
Distribution. KuAsis (Hampson); WESTERN CHINA.

underside of the latter ochreous. Primaries pale buff, venation and 
margins black. Secondaries pale yellow, venation and outer margins 
black except vein la and basal portions of veins 14, c. 
Vein 11 of primaries is nearer to 12 than to 10.

fig. 25 (1891). 
Specimens were received from T'a-chien-lu, Wa-ssu-kow, 
and Chi-tou, twelve in all (10 ¢ 2 @); they were 
obtained in July. 
In most of my examples the venation is broadly black 
and the inner margin of the primaries and outer marginal 
area of the secondaries are suffused with the same 
colour.
