silvery- white line, and terminates in a black quadrate spot on

 bordered with fuscous. All the wings have a dusky discal 

 spot ; fringes brown. Under surface orange, sparingly 

 freckled with blackish ; primaries have a black discal spot 

 and a blackish wavy submarginal band, the latter inter- 

 rupted towards costa, where it is represented by a round 

 spot; secondaries have a black discal spot, preceded by a 

 blackish abbreviated band from abdominal margin, and a 

 blackish wavy submarginal band. Antennae as in D. acutaria. 



Female. Cinnamon-brown; the markings as in the male, 

 but less distinct. 



Expanse, <$ 52, ? 58 millim. 



Four male specimens and one female from Moupin, Omei-

Var. grisearictj nov. 



Purplish grey, deeper on the secondaries and outer mar- 

 ginal area of primaries ; there are no purplish-brown striations ; 

 the transverse markings and discal spots are similar to those 

 of the type, but the outer line of primaries is olive-brown. 



Two male specimens from Omei-shan, July. 



Var. albomaculata, nov. 



Primaries ochreous brown, suffused with olive-brown, con- 

 spicuously so beyond the transverse line : secondaries purplish 

 brown. Markings as in the type, but in addition there is a 

 series of silvery-white lunules on the outer margin of primaries 

 and a cloud of the same colour, interrupted by the nervules, 

 in the angle of transverse line. 



One male specimen from Pu-tsu-fong, July.

Dalima obliquariaj sp. n. 



Apex of primaries acute; secondaries have an angular 

 projection above middle of outer margin. Pale reddish 

 brown ; first line of primaries rufous, undulated ; second line 

 indicated by a short rufous streak from costa and another on 

 inner margin ; third line rufous, running obliquely from apex 

 to middle of the inner margin, where it terminates very close 

 to the second line, a short outwardly oblique streak from the 

 costa approaches the upper portion of this line; there are 

 traces of a diffuse, dusky, submarginal band. Fringes darker.
