342 Mr. H. J. Ehvcs on the 



IIG. A. niobc, L. 



This was common in the Bashkaus Valley, and also at 

 Ongodai in July, and did not differ from European 

 specimens. 



117. A. adii'i'pc, L. 



Found at the same time and jjlace as the last. 

 Most of the specimens have the silvery spots below, but 

 one belongs to the variety cleodoxa, O. All of them have 

 the androconia on veins 2 and 8 well marked, which is not 

 the case in some of the specimens from Mongolia, North 

 China, Korea, and Amurland, which may belong to another 

 species, which as yet I am not able to define exactly. 

 Those with the androconia only on vein 2 seem to occur 

 in Amurland, Korea, and in North and Central China and 

 Japan, with adippe, niohe and neri^jpc, and are usually 

 confused in collections with one or other of these. 



118. A. papliia, L. 



Common above and below Lake Teletskoi in the Bija 

 Valley, and does not differ from European specimens. 



119. A. paivdora,y>)c\\\^. 



I did not see this species, but it was taken by lluckbeil 

 in the South- West Altai. 



120. Mdanargia iapygia, var. snwarooius, Hbst. 



I did not take this myself, but have received specimens 

 from Herr Tancro taken by Euckbcil, It is also recorded 

 as M. clotko by Lederer. I have seen it from the Yenesei 

 Valley, where Jacobson found it rarely.

 PI. XI, fig. 5 ^ G ? . 



I got a large number of specimens of these two species, 

 which enable me to appreciate their distinctive characters 

 in a way which I could not do when I last wrote on the 

 genus Erdna. Esper's figure of mawnsitts combines the 

 distinctive characters of both species in a way which 

 renders it impossible to say with certainty which he had 

 before him, though I am inclined to think it Avas a var.
