332 Mr. J. H. Leech on Lepidoptera fleterocera 



Fringes brownish grey, preceded by a series of black elongated 

 spots. Under surface of primaries fuscous with paler margins, 

 and of secondaries greyish ; blackish discal spot on all the 

 wings, and the second line of primaries is indicated on the 

 nervules. Antennae more than half the length of primaries, 

 bipectinated. 



Female. Rather browner, and the submarginal line on all 

 the wings appears more distinct. 



Expanse, <$ 52, $ 46 millim. 



I have specimens from Moupin, Ta-chien-lu, Wa-shan, 

 Pu-tsu-fong, and Che-tou, taken in May and June. 



Hob. Western China. 



This species is subject to variation in tint and in the 

 definition of the markings. Some examples are greyer than 

 the specimens I have selected as types, and in others the 

 markings are somewhat confused, but the black dots on the 

 neuration appear to be a constant character. 



Gnophos lilliputata. 



Gnophos lilliputata, Pouj. Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1895, p. 308, pi. vi. 



figs. 7, 7 a. 



One example of each sex recorded from Moupin by Poujade. 

 Hob. Western China. 



Gnophos (?) thibetaria. 



Gnophos thibetaria, Oberth. Etud. d'Entom. ix. p. 21, pi. i. fig. 3 

 (1884). 



Oberthiir refers to the type as a very fresh female 

 specimen which was taken by Mgr. Biet at Ta-tsien-Lou. 



The figure of this species does not seem to exhibit the 

 characters of a Gnophos. 



Gnophos gnophosaria. 



Psodos gnophosaria, Oberth. Etud. d'Entom. xviii. p. 28, pi. iii. fig. 45 

 (1893). 



Judging from the figure, I should say that this species is 

 referable to Gnophos^ and appears to be a close ally of G. ob- 

 scuraria, Htibn., if it is not really a form of that species, 

 from which it only appears to differ in the more pronounced 

 character of the transverse line on under surface of the 

 wings. 



Hab. Western China. 



Gnophos (?) creperaria. 



Gnophos creperaria, Ersch. Hor. Soc. Ent. Koss. xii. p. 337 (1876) ; 



Hedem. op. cit. xvi. p. 247, pi. xiii. fig. 3 (1881). 

 Gnophos ? creperaria, Alph. Rom. sur L6p. vi. p. 63 (1892).
