Heterocerous Lepidoptera from Japan. 425 
at base, tipped with white, and traversed by a grey line ; 
secondaries sordid white, traversed by parallel pale grey 
lines, which change to black below the middle of the 
abdominal margin ; external border greyish; fringe as 
in primaries ; thorax whitish, tegule blackish, vertex of 
head slightly yellowish ; abdomen dark reddish brown, 
with whitish edges to the segments; under surface 
sericeous-white, traversed from the middle by ill-defined 
parallel greyish lines ; disco-cellular spots and a slender 
marginal line black ; frmge creamy yellowish at base, 
and traversed by a grey line; body below yellowish ; 
expanse of wings, 1 inch 2 lines. 
Nikko (Maries) ; Tokei (Fenton). 
Nearest to C. dimidiaria, Motschulsky. 
139. Cidaria pryeri, un. s. 
Near to C. substituta; also very near to the preceding 
species, from which it differs as follows: primaries with 
the basal two-thirds slaty grey, the black lines across it 
more numerous; the margins of the subbasal band 
yellow; the external area yellow, a grey line just beyond 
the central belt (which forms part of the basal two-thirds 
of the wing); an angular discal series of black lunate 
spots just beyond and parallel to the grey line, the largest 
spots being towards the costa, where they lose their 
lunate character and become oblong; subapical costal 
area blackish; three submarginal black spots towards 
apex, and one blackish spot near the external angle ; 
secondaries with the basal two-thirds greyish, par- 
ticularly towards the abdominal margin ; body yellower 
than in C. mariesii; under surface of wings with the 
basal two-thirds grey, bounded externally by an angular 
blackish line; a discal series of dusky spots; costa 
and body below yellowish; expanse of wings, 1 inch 
4 lines. 
Yokohama (H. Pryer) ; Tokei (Fenton). 
The example from Tokei is much worn, and therefore 
more nearly resembles C. mariesti than the type does. 
140. Cidaria? anomala, n. s. 
General coloration of Scotosia ; primaries above dark 
smoky brown, sprinkled with a few whity brown stria- 
tions ; a pale oblique elbowed line across the basal third,
