18 bis. Pamphlebia rubrolimbraria Gucn. (= pcrigrapta Turn., 

 Proc. Roy. Soc. Oueensl. XXIX, p. 71, 1917, syn. nov.) — 1 9, 

 Anping, 1912. Not prcviously rccorcled from Formosa, but appa- 

 rently distributed nearly throughout thc Indo-Australian Region, 

 reaching eastward to X. Queensland and the Bismarck Archipelago. 



Subfam. Sterrhinae. 



29 bis. Scopula defectiscripta Prout. On the supersession of 

 the name AcidaUa by Scopula, see Nov. Zool. XXIII, p. 17. As 

 regards the kagiata group (Ent. Mitt. III, pp. 241, 242), I now 

 regard the three forms as perfectly distinct species. In kagiata 

 the (^ liindtarsus is markedly more abbreviated than in the other 

 two. The more deeply coloured Koscmpo defectiscripta ab. (loc. 

 cit.) is not truly ,,intermediate". 



29 tcr. Scopula emma Prout. — 1 o, 4 $, Chosokei, 1914. 



31 bis. Scopula propinquaria Leech. — 2 ?, Chosokei, 1914. 

 A new record for Formosa, but coli. Wileman already possesses 

 it from Kanshirei. 



32. Scopula limbata Wileman. — 2 ^, Chosokei, 1914; 1 (^, 

 Paroe, N. Paiwan dist., August 1912. In erecting this species 

 (The Ent, XLVIII, p. 81, 1915) Wileman only comparcs it with 

 fluidaria S\\dnh., but it is still closcr to sybillaria Swinh., if not, 

 indeed, identical. In any case the material from Formosa (cfr. 

 Ent. Mitt. III, p.242) can beregistered as limbata until the question 

 of the Union of the two forms is definitely set at rest. 



32 bis. Scopula isomerica sp. nov. — (^, 23 mm. Face black. 

 Palpus black, thc proximal half pale beneath. Vertex white. 

 Antenna dentate-ciliate, neithcr the teeth nor the ciliation quite 

 so long as in effrenata Walk.. Collar brown. Thorax and abdomen 

 dirty white, the abdomen dorsally (except at the ends of the Seg- 

 ments) with moderatcly strong dark irroration. Fore femur and 

 tibia strongly darkened on inner side. Hind tibia white, dilated 

 but not greatly elongate, slightly fringed above, the inner pencil 

 white, the shorter ,,knee-pencir' tingedwith brown; hind tarsusas 

 longas tibia. Wings dirty white, with rather strong dark irroration, 

 recalling effrenata but not quite so dark. Both wings perhaps 

 slightly narrower, the hindwing with the tooth at R ^ slightly more 

 prominent. Cell-dots small, black. Lines brownish, not so strong 

 as in effrenata; antemedian of forewing slightly more oblique, 

 lacking thc second strong angulation outward (i. e. the one behmd 

 the cell); subterminal not thickened into whitish Spots at ils 

 proximal bends, on thc other band accompanicd proximally by 

 very noticeable dark shades in these positions (almost exactly as 

 in the North Ameiican plantagenaria Hülst), the pcsteiior one 

 also suggestod on the hindwing; the zigzag median shade of hind-
