224. Coremia frigida, n. sp. 
White, the primaries spotted at the base with black and 
smoky brown; two central angulated black lines, indicating 
the usual band, the outer one diffused internally above the 
middle ; a black spot at the end of the cell; outer border 
smoky brown, margined and traversed internally by two black 
lines parallel to the outer of the two central lines; veins upon 
the border black, each with a central white dot, the whole 
together forming a submarginal series ; fringe white-spotted : 
secondaries silver-grey, with the external area regularly white ; 
a marginal series of dark grey spots which run through the 
fringe; a blackish discocellular spot: body whitish, greyish 
in front, dotted with black ; antenne black annulated with 
white. Primaries below with the basal two thirds silver-grey, 
crossed near the base by two grey stripes visible only from 
the transparence of the wing, the inner one marked with two 
blackish spots; an oblique black fasciole across the end of the 
cell, partly limiting the grey area; an angulated white discal 
belt, followed by a black border ; a white subapical costal dot, 
and a series on the fringe: secondaries as above: body below 
white. Expanse 1 inch. 
Yokohama (Jonas). 
A beautiful little species, in pattern most nearly resembling 
“ Ooremia” heliacaria; the latter, however, has strongly 
pectinate antenne in the male. 
CrpariA, Treitschke. 
225. Cidaria melancholica, n. sp. 
Allied to CO. stlaceata, but considerably larger, the white 
line nearest to the base of primaries more regular, not suc- 
ceeded by a yellow line; the line which follows it (indicating 
the inner edge of the central band) acutely angulated upon the 
median vein ; the lines and veins on the external area, which 
are yellow in C. sclaceata, pale testaceous or sordid whitish ; a 
small blue-pupilled ocellus beyond the discoidal cell; secon- 
daries smoky grey throughout, with the usual sinuated white- 
edged discal lines. Expanse 1 inch 10 lines. 
Yokohama (Jonas). 
Typical C. stlaceata seems to be common in Japan. 
226. Cidaria obscura, n. sp. 
Most like very dark varieties of C. russata, but altogether 
darker and with a different pattern on the underside. Greyish 
brown, the primaries with a pink tinge, markings extremely
