This species varies greatly in the coloration of the under 

 surface. The description of Motschulsky, drawn up from a 

 Chinese specimen, gives the breast and sides of abdomen 

 as black ; the insects collected by JNIr. Lewis at Nagasaki 

 are quite pale beneath, but one in my possession from 

 Yokohama has the underside entirely black.
