111. GRAPHIPHORA ILLOBA. 
Agrotis illoba, But]. Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (5) i. p. 162 (1878); 
Ill. Typ. Lep. Het. iii. pl. xliv. fig. 7 (1879). 
Graphiphora pacifica, Butl. A. M. N. H. (5) 1. p. 165 (1878); 
Ill. Typ. Lep. Het. ii. pl. xxx. fig. 2 (1878). 
An extensive and variable series, coll. Pryer. 
I took this species at Yokohama in October. 
The difference between G. illoba and G. pacifica, Butl., is one of 
colour only. 
Yokohama (Jonas and Pryer); Oiwake (Pryer); Kiukiang 
(Pratt). 
112. GRAPHIPHORA DEPARCA. 
Mythimna deparca, Butl. Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (5) iv. p. 358 
(1879). 
Several specimens, coll. Pryer. 
I took two males at Oiwake in October. 
Except that the ¢ of this species has pectinated antenne it is 
hardly separable from G. festiva. Mr. Butler says it is allied to 
Mythimna placida, but in this I cannot concur.

Hermonassa cecilia, Butl. Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (5) i. p. 164

Opigena arenosa, Butl. Trans. Ent. Soc. 1881, p. 179. 
Several specimens, coll. Pryer, among which are examples varying 
in the direction of O. arenosa, Butl., which is certainly a pale form 
of O. cecilia. I took a specimen at Nikko in September 1886 
which agrees exactly with the type of O. arenosa in the National 
Collection at South Kensington.
