 on the underside there is no heavy black marking on the 

 outer margins. 



GnopJios lentiginosaria, sp. n. 



Male. All the wings white, heavily freckled and clouded 

 with fuliginous grey. The primaries have a blackish patch 

 on the costa extending to and enclosing the black discal spot ; 

 a smaller spot of the same colour lies between this patch and 

 the base of the wing and a larger one beyond it, from which 

 an interrupted narrow blackish band proceeds across the wing 

 to the inner margin ; just beyond this line is a large rather 

 round blackish spot. Secondaries have a blackish discal spot. 

 Fringes fuliginous grey, marked with white but hardly 

 chequered, and preceded by a blackish line. Under surface of 

 all the wings white; primaries are fuliginous grey on basal 

 area, and a broad streak of the same colour extends to a break 

 in the fuliginous- grey border of outer margin ; the costa is 

 narrowly ochreous and has three blackish spots on it, the 

 second of these extends to the discal spot, and the third gives 

 rise to a narrow blackish band, which crosses the wing almost 

 to the submedian nervure : secondaries have the costa nar- 

 rowly striated with dark grey, a blackish discal spot, and six 

 or seven blackish spots forming a curved series from costa to 

 inner margin. Antennae simple. Head blackish. Thorax 

 corresponds with the wings. Abdomen above greyish, marked 

 with ochreous on the segmental divisions ; entirely ochreous 

 beneath ; the legs also are greyish above and ochreous 

 beneath. 



Female. Rather more ample in the wing, but colour and 

 marking similar to the male. 



Expanse 47-52 millim. 



A nice series, comprising specimens from Ta-chien-lu, 

 Pu-tsu-fong, Ni-tou, Moupin, and Omei-shan, the majority 

 from the last-named locality : June and July.
