Some nice specimens from Yokohama in Fryer's collection. 



I captured the species at Gensan in July, and it was 

 obtained by my collectors at Chang-yang and most of the 

 localities in Western China that they visited. 



The species seems to vary a good deal in size and also in 

 the ground-colour, but this last may probably be due to 

 condition. 



Distribution. Amur; Corea; Japan; Central and Western 

 China. 



Ophthalmodes subpicaria, sp. n. 



White, sparingly dusted with brownish, especially along 

 the nervures and inner margins. Primaries have four equi- 

 distant brownish spots on costa ; the fourth near apex and 

 limiting, at that point, a broad greyish band on outer 

 margin, which is interrupted about the middle, clouded with 

 brownish above and below the interruption, and intersected 

 by a whitish wavy line commencing in external edge of 

 fourth costal spot, and terminating at inner angle. Second- 

 aries have a dusky central spot, a curved series beyond, each 

 spot placed on a nervule (a similar series of spots is present 

 on primaries, but not so well defined) ; the outer margin is 

 clouded with brownish towards both angles. Fringes brown- 

 ish, faintly chequered with grey, and preceded by an inter- 

 rupted black line. Under surface : primaries white, clouded 

 with blackish on the costal portion of basal area and before 

 apex ; there is also a lesser cloud on the outer margin just 

 above anal angle ; discal spot black and conspicuous, showing 

 through on upper surface; costa marked with black and 

 dusky : secondaries have two black spots on costa, with some 

 streaks of the same colour between them and towards the 

 base of the wing; submarginal band blackish, interrupted 

 about the middle and terminating before inner margin. 

 Antennse blackish ; bipectinated in the male.
