70. APAMEA ASKOLDIS. 
Hadena (Apamea) askoldis, Oberth. Etud. d’ Ent. v. p. 72, pl. iii. 
fig. 13 (1880). 
Apamea nivalis, Butl. Trans. Ent. Soc. 1881, p. 177. 
One example, coll. Pryer. 
In A, askoldis, Oberth., the ground-colour is greyish and the 
patch from costa a brighter brown than the same character in 
A. nivalis, Butl. At the same time the disposition of the lines and 
other markings is identical in both insects; therefore I have con- 
sidered them forms of one species. I should remark that the 
markings are similar in character to those of Ophiogramma from 
Europe.
