This variable species seems to be generally distributed 

 throughout Western China, and is common in Japan and 

 Corea. 



It also occurs at Chang-yang, Central China, but as the 

 form from this locality is rather different to either of those 

 previously named, I describe it as 



Var. extremaria. 



Apex of primaries more produced and the outer margin of 

 secondaries more deeply indented. Larger in expanse. More 

 thickly powdered with fuscous, and the markings are much 

 larger and blacker. 



Expanse, $ 38, ? 42 millim. 



Two examples of each sex. 



Distribution. Siberia; Sikhim ; Khdsis ; Penang (Hamp- 

 son) ; Japan ; Central and Western China. 



Meyrick (Trans. Ent. Soc. 1892, p. 91) places duplicaria, 

 Walk, (nigronotaria, Brem.) in Calothysanis, Hiibn. 



Carige flavidaria, sp. n. 



Somewhat similar to C. cruciplaga, but the median nervure 

 and its branches and the nervules above are broadly ochreous ; 

 the double black lines are interrupted, except at costa and 

 towards inner margin, and the yellow bands between are 

 broader and deeper in colour ; all the wings have a pale sub- 

 marginal line, but serrated ; the inner double line of primaries 

 is nearer to the black discal dot. The same differences are 

 noticeable on the under surface. 



Expanse 40 millim. 



One male specimen from Omei-shan, July. 



Hab. Western China.
