Lepidoptera from Kiukiang. 145 



An extensive series, including specimens exactly iden- 

 tical with mirandii, ButL, and tyjjical examples of si/hyita, 

 with aberrations of the latter form leading up to mirandn. 



241. Abraxas martaria, Guen., Phal., ii., 205, 1258. 

 Three specimens. 



242. Abraxas jimctilineata, Walk., Cat. Lep. Het., xxiv., 

 p. 1123, n. 18 (1862) ; Butl., 111. Typ. Lep. Het., 

 pt. ii., p. 53, pi. xxxvii., fig. 5 (1878). 



One example, agreeing exactly with specimens from 

 Japan. 



243. Abraxas amplificata, Walk., Cat. Lep. Het., xxiv., 



'p. 1124 (1862). 



Four specimens, varying in size. 



243a, Abraxas inter ruptaria, Feld., Wien. Ent. Mon., 

 1862, p. 39 ; Eeise der Nov., pi. cxxix., fig. 29. 



Varies in the size and intensit}' of black markings ; 

 in one example these are confluent, the white ground 

 colour forming six spots on the primaries, and on 

 secondaries is shown as a spot and fascia at the base, a 

 central and two submarginal dashes. 



244. Pancethia hemionata, Guen., Phal., ii., 208, 1267. 

 Only one example. 



245. Obeida vagipardata, Walk., Cat. Lep. Het., xxiv., 



p. 1139 (1862). 



Appears to be common at Kiukiang. The specimens 

 differ greatly in the size of black spots ; especially is this 

 the case on the secondaries, where the spots are often 

 confluent, and form wide bands. 



246. Aspilates muiidataria, Cram., Pap. Exot., 400, h. 



Aspilates tonghata, Feld., Reise der Nov., t. cxxix., 

 fig. 12.
