Lepidoptera of the Isle of Askold. 231 



Odonestis unicolor^ Oberth. Described as a red variation of 

 O. excellens, Butl. 



Trisula andrwas^ Obertli. = Phalera jlavescens ^ Bremer. 



Tliis species is a Notodont, although referred by M. Ober- 

 thiir to the Lasiocampidas, next to what he calls " BomhyxV^ 

 neustria ; the genus Tn'sida, on the other hand, is a broad- 

 winged Liparid having the larva of a Lymantria. P. jlaves- 

 cens is a common Japanese species. 



Saturtiia Jankowskii^ Obertli. Referable to the genus 

 JBJiodia. 



Eapliranor cceca^ Oberth. A form quite new to me. 



Pseudopsyche Denihoivskii^ Oberth. A species of Panisa 

 near circumdata. 



Limacodidae. 



Limacodes castaneus, Oberth. = Phrixolepia sericea^ Butl. 

 M. Oberthiir admits this sjnotijm in the note at the end of 

 his description ; but he nevertheless retains his own name. 

 Limacodes dentatus, Oberth. 



Geometrites. 



Nyssiodes olgaria^ Oberth. According to Dr. Staudinger 

 (so M. Oberthiir tells us), this is probably the Piston lefuarius 

 of Erschoff. If this is so, surely it is unwise to run the risk of 

 adding to the synonymy by proposing another name for it. 

 We have this species from Yokohama, sent by Mr. Pryer. 



Boarmia stipitaria^ Oberth. Very near to B. consortaria. 



Boarmia piperitaria^ Oberth. 



Boarmia Dembowshiaria^ Oberth. This species, in ray 

 opinion, does not belong to the Boarmiidte ; the character of 

 its markings is rather that of Fidonia. It could in no case be 

 referred to Boarmia^ if its antennas are so slender as repre- 

 sented. The B. mandshuraria of Bremer appears to me to be 

 a Melanijipe allied to my B. ahraxaria. 



Boarmia amphidasyaria, Oberth. This is a HemeropMla. 



Phorodesma Jankovoskiaria^ Mill. 



Phorodesma amcenaria, Oberth. This is a Comibcena. 



Nemoria ampMtritaria^ Oberth. This is a Thalera. 



Acidalia unio, Oberth. Is not this a Corycia? 



Phasiane griseo-limhata^ Oberth. =■ Nematocampa stramineaj 

 Butl. 



According to M. Oberthiir his " Diagnoses " were pub- 

 lished in August 1879, and consequently take priority of my 

 paper published in the ' Annals ' for November and December 

 1879.
