Genus MiNUCiA, Moore. 

 Minucia olista^ sp. n. 



? . Cupreous brown, with a slight pinkish tinge. Fore 

 wings with a small brown dot for the orbicular ; reniform 

 large, ear-shaped, with pale border ; inner line pale sinuous, 

 oblique, from hinder margin at one third to costa at one fifth ; 

 postmedial line composed of pale dots, nearly erect, bends 

 slightly outwards outside the reniform ; submarginal line 

 pale, zigzag, more or less edged with brown and with two or 

 three black marks. Hind wing blackish brown, paler towards 

 the base ; cilia of both wings ochreous. Underside grey ; 

 fore wings with a darker spot at end of cell ; both wings with 

 the outer border broadly darker. 



Expanse of wings 1 ^ inch. 



Nanchuan, China [Jansen). One example. 



Allied to M. ciqjrea, Moore, but quite distinct ; the lines on 

 the fore wings in that species are complete, nearly straight, 

 and the first two meet together in the centre of the hinder 

 margin. 



Genus Sypna, Guen. 

 Sypna olena, sp. n. 



(J . Dark broAvn, inside of palpi, top of head, and thorax 

 tinged with ochreous red. Fore wings crossed by several 

 indistinct bands, slightly paler than the ground-colour of the 

 wing ; transverse lines deep black, first two rather close 

 together and antemedial slightly sinuous, curving a little 

 outwardly, and a little further apart from each other on the 

 costa than they are on the hinder margin ; a pure white dot 

 on the reniform ; orbicular ear-shaped^ very large, and ringed 

 with black ; submarginal line also slightly sinuous, elbowed 

 outwardly in the centre, nearly touching the outer margin. 

 Hind wings with indications of a medial line ; a submar- 

 ginal brown line just below an indistinct discal band ; mar- 

 ginal festoon on both wings brown, with white points, most 

 distinct on fore wings. Underside ochreous grey, suffused 

 with brown ; fore wings with the cell brown, a large brown 

 square mark at the end, followed by a pale spot, then a black 

 discal sinuous band, which is continued across the centre of 

 the hind wings, followed by a pale band, a broad black band, 

 and a pale marginal space ; the cell-spot on the hind wing is 

 pale, ringed witii brown. 



Expanse of wings 2 jV inches. 



Nanchuan, China {Jansen). Two examples. 



Allied to IS. fuiiginosa, Butler, from Japan.
