Butler’s type was from Hakodate; Pryer did not meet 
with it, and [| failed to obtain it in any part of Japan that I 
collected in. 
Hab, Japan. 
Probably a form of £. castigata, Hiibn. 
Hupithecia sinicaria, sp. n. 
Primaries brownish, darker along the costa; the basal area 
is whitish, limited by a wavy whitish band, which is clearly 
defined on the dark costal area and is intersected transversely 
by a wavy dark line; there is another similar whitish band 
beyond the black discal dot, but this does not proceed below 
the middle of the wing; these bands are connected by an 
irregular whitish patch below the dark costal area; third 
band whitish, intersected by a dark line on costa, but hardly 
traceable below, except as white points on the nervules, sub- 
marginal line dusky. Secondaries greyish, traversed by 
five wavy whitish bands, the third and fourth of which are 
most distinct. Under surface fuscous grey ; primaries with 
a black discal dot and indications of dusky transverse bands ; 
secondaries with whitish bands as above. 
Expanse 24 millim.
