Oiwake, Yesso {Pryer). 



243. OcNERiA furva, sp. n. (Plate XXXI. fig. 10.) 



c? . Brownish black, from the base nearly to outer angle, just 

 above and parallel with the inner margin, is a series of black dots and 

 streaks, around which are numerous pale scales, giving to this part of 

 the wing a whitish appearance. There are also a few subapical black 

 dashes. 



5 . Paler, and markings more distinct ; a distinct basal band, be- 

 yond which is a darkish cloud from the costa to the centre of wing. 



Expanse, S 26-35, $ ;i0-40 millim. 



Allied to 0. terebynthi, Freyer, from which, however, it is easily 

 separated. There was a long series in Pryer's collection ; it is 

 no. 1 78 of his Catalogne.

Var. ? Orgyia punctatella, Motsch. Et. Ent. i860, p. 32. 



A nice series, coll. Pryer. Staudinger does not figure his D. pudica 

 in the work referred to, but his description of that insect applies 

 exactly to D.pryeri, Butl., and this last I consider to be a local form 

 of C. pudibunda. I should mention that I took a specimen of C. pudi- 

 bunda var. concolor. Stand., at Ningpo in April 1886, and this fact 

 goes far, I think, to confirm my opinion.
