Genus Mrnucia, Moore. 
Minucva olista, sp. nu. 
9. Cupreous brown, with a slight pinkish tinge. Fore 
wings with a small brown dot for the orbicular; reniform 
large, ear-shaped, with pale border ; inner line pale sinuous, 
oblique, from hinder margin at one third to costa at one fifth ; 
postmedial line composed of pale dots, nearly erect, bends 
shghtly outwards outside the reniform; submarginal line 
pale, zigzag, more or less edged with brown and with two or 
three black marks. Hind wing blackish brown, paler towards 
the base ; cilia of both wings ochreous. Underside grey ; 
fore wings with a darker spot at end of cell; both wings with 
the outer border broadly darker. 
Expanse of wings 1,5 inch. 
Nanchnan, China (Jansen). One example. 
Allied to MW. cuprea, Moore, but quite distinct ; the lines on 
the fore wings in that species are complete, nearly straight, 
and the first two meet together in the centre of the hinder 
margin. 
Genus Sypna, Guen. 
Sypna olena, sp. n. 
3d. Dark brown, inside of palpi, top of head, and thorax 
tinged with ochreous red. Fore wings crossed by several 
indistinct bands, slightly paler than the ground-colour of the 
wing; transverse lines deep black, first two rather close 
together and antemedial slightly sinuous, curving a little 
outwardly, and a little further apart from each other on the 
costa than they are on the hinder margin; a pure white dot 
on the reniform ; orbicular ear-shaped, very large, and ringed 
with black ; submarginal line also slightly sinuous, elbowed 
outwardly in the centre, nearly touching the outer margin. 
Hind wings with indications of a medial line; a submar- 
ginal brown line just below an indistinct discal band; mar- 
ginal festoon on both wings brown, with white points, most 
distinct on fore wings. Underside ochreous grey, suffused 
with brown ; fore wings with the cell brown, a large brown 
square mark at the end, followed by a pale spot, then a black 
discal sinuous band, which is contiued across the centre of 
the hind wings, followed by a pale band, a broad black band, 
and a pale marginal space; the cell-spot on the hind wing is 
pale, rmged with brown. 
Expanse of wings 23°, inches. 
Nanchuan, China (Jansen). Two examples. 
Alhed to S. fuliginosa, Butler, from Japan.
