Acidalia nemoraria, Hiibn., var.?; Alph. Rom, sur Lép, vi. p. 54 
(1892). 
Alphéraky records a male specimen from Ou-pin in the 
province of Kan-sou: July. He states that the wings are 
very white, and that the ochreous bands are more distinct, 
especially on the secondaries, than in the European type. 
Distribution. Central and Eastern Europe; Amur; 
Western China. . 
Acidalia nivearia, sp. n. 
Male.—White. Primaries have three oblique pale ochreous 
transverse lines; the first of these is not well defined, but 
the second and third are parallel and near together ; the costa 
of primaries and outer marginal area of all the wings sparingly 
sprinkled with minute black specks (only discernible under a 
lens). Secondaries have two almost parallel pale ochreous 
transverse lines and a black discal dot. Under surface white : 
primaries suffused with fuscous on costal portion of basal half; 
parallel transverse lines pale brown: secondaries have a pale 
brown transverse line beyond the middle and a minute black 
discal dot. 
Female.—White, with minute black specks on costa of 
primaries and outer marginal area of all the wings as in the 
male; the wings appear to be without transverse markings.

Acidalia majoraria, sp. 0. 
Male.—Allied to A. umbelaria, Hiibn. Whitish, powdered 
with fuscous scales. Primaries have four pale brown trans- 
verse lines, the first of which is elbowed below costa, the 
second is oblique, the third and fourth (which are near to- 
gether) are oblique and slightly wavy. Secondaries have 
three transverse lines, which appear to be continuations of 
the second, third, and fourth of primaries. Fringes whitish,
