H. sinica appears to be separable from H. hilarata by 

 the uniform fuscous secondaries. The hind marginal 

 border of primaries is variable in width and also in the 

 depth of the indentation. In one Gensan specimen the 

 band is very narrow and not in the least indented. 



I have examples from Hakodate and Gensan, and there 

 were specimens from Yokohama in Fryer's collection.
