 p. 457 (1892). 



One female specimen from Chang-yang, taken in July, 

 and one from Ichang, taken in August. 



So far as I am aware, only the female sex has been 

 described or figured. I have an example from Omei-shan 

 which I believe to be the male of this species, and of which 

 I append the following description : — 



Primaries whitish, heavily striated with blackish over the whole 

 area ; fringes black marked with whitish at ends of the nervules. 

 Secondaries fuliginous black, fringes yellow. Under surface fuli- 

 ginous black; the costa of primaries, and the costal area and the fringe.<^ 

 of secondaries yellowish ; the neuration is also yellowish towards 

 the outer margin on all the wings. Head blackish, palpi yellowish ; 

 thorax dark greyish with some yellowish brown hairs on the front 

 segment ; abdomen fuliginous black above, yellowish beneath. 

 Expanse 46 millim. 



Distribution. Sikhim ; Khasis ; Central and Western 

 China.
