124 Mr. Leech on a collection of 



121. Syntomis pasctis, n. s. (PI. IX., fig. 1). 



Closely allied to Syntomis acrospila, Feld., but wants the large 

 white apical spot of that species ; the hyaline spots of primaries 

 are rather differently arranged, and that of the secondaries different 

 in shape. Felder's figure''^ represents a male with five yellow belts 

 on abdomen, but the male of S. pascics has six abdominal rings, 

 and the female five. 



Expanse, ^ 45 mm., ? 52 mm. 



Three siDecimens of each sex were received from 

 Kiukiang. 



122. Syntomis thelehus, Fabr. 



Syntomis qermana, Feld., Wem. Ent. Mon., vi., 37 



(1862'). 

 S. mandarinia , Butl., J. L. S., Zool., xii., 349. 



In size of hyahne spots and confluency of abdominal 

 bands this species varies greatly. 



128. Syntomis torquatus, n. s. (PI. IX., fig. 2). 



In colour of wings, number, shape, and arrangement of hyaline 

 spots this insect is not separable from S.fortunii, Boisd., but the 

 yellow collar, five broad and two narrow abdominal bands, together 

 with a small white patch in apical fringes of primaries, most 

 clearly defined on under surface, at once show it to be distinct 

 from that species. 



Expanse, 34 mm. 



One example. 



124. Alpenus fiammeoluSf Moore, Ann. & Mag, Nat. 

 Hist. (4), XX., 89. 



A single example (female), which does not differ in the 

 least from Japanese and Ningpo specimens. 



125. Rhodogastria lactinea, Cram., Pap. Exot., ii., 

 pi. cxxxiii., fig. D. 



Rhodogastria sangiiinolenta, Fab., Ent. Syst , iii., 473, 

 206. 



One female of this variable species.
