Heterocerous Lepidoptera from Japan. A417 
the secondaries forking from a long foot-stalk ; in appear- 
ance it is intermediate between Acidalia and Melanippe. 
Type, P chrysidia. 
122 Pseudostegania chrysidia, N. 8. 
Pale golden stramineous, with pearly reflections ; 
wings above with a conspicuous black dot at the end of 
the cell; primaries with the pase of costal border striped 
with purplish brown ; two slender subbasal brown lines ; 
three angulated and zigzag subparallel lines just beyond 
the cell; two submarginal parallel undulated greyish 
brown lines, and a spot of. the same colour at apex; 
secondaries crossed by three nearly equidistant grey- 
brown lines; two or three marginal dots of the same 
colour; under surface nearly as above; expanse of 
wings, 1 inch 2 lines.

The following species should probably be placed (with 
its allies) near to Timandra ; put, as this suggestion has 
only just appeared in print, I have left it where it would 
be looked for by Lepidopterists seeking to identify their 
species, namely, in its old position in the family— 
MACARIID. 
123. Parasemia pryert, 0. 8. 
Near to P. notata of Europe, with which it has long 
been confounded, but uniformly larger, the first two 
lines across the primaries commencing in well-marked 
oblique brown dashes, the third or discal line distinctly 
double throughout, the subapical costal brown patch 
which almost touches it in P. notata being replaced by 
two obliquely-placed brown dots nearer to the apex; the 
second line of the secondaries sharply defined, angular, 
not double, but a third greyish line parallel to the 
second limiting the external border; on the under 
surface the markings are sharply defined, the lines 
being (as in P. notata) of a golden testaceous colour, 
put those of the secondaries three in number and nearly 
equidistant, as on the upper surface; expanse of wings, 
1 inch 6 lines.
