Heterocera from China, Ja'pan, and Corea. 195 



M. gratiosa.. I think that both the former are distinct 

 from the latter, and I cannot regard j^ulcJira, Butl., as a 

 form of striata, Brem. The two species last named can 

 be readily separated from each other by the direction and 

 character of the outer band of primaries, which in striata 

 is angled instead of curved and has a projection from angle 

 to apex.

Occurs at Moupin, Omei-shan, Wa-shan, Chia-ting-fu, 

 and Chia-kou-ho, in June and July. 



Varies in the intensity of the markings of primaries ; 

 in some specimens these, with the exception of a spot on 

 inner margin, are absent.

A fine series, including both sexes, from Chang-yang, 

 and one female from Ichang. June and July. 

 Eahitat. Central China.

Setina imiptmcfa, Leech, Entom., xxiii, p. 82 (1890). 



Since describing the two sexes of this species I have 

 received a second male from Chang-yang, also one from 

 Moupin and a female from Kia-ting-fu. 



All these specimens agree with the female example 

 described as the type of that sex, and it would appear 

 therefore that reddish orange is the typical colour of the 

 species, and that yellow is an aberrant colour. 



The Western Chinese specimens are rather larger than 

 the examples from Chang-yang.
