Manchuria and the Corea. Ill 



The pair of this Chinese species obtained by Lieut. Car- 

 penter is in fine condition, the female showing no trace of 

 rubbing. 



7. Pyrameis cardui. 



Papilio cardui, Lhmseus, Fauna Suecica, p. 276 (1761). 



One worn example. Gensan, Port Lazareff, E. Corea (E. 

 B. Levett). 



This cosmopolitan species is noted by its captor as " a very 

 rapid and strong flier," 



8. Lyccena japonica? 



Lyccena japonica, Murray, Ent. Month. Mag. xi. p. 167 (1874). 



A female. Barracouta Harbour, Manchuria, July 31, 1882 



( W. W. Perry) . 



The specimen is not perfectly typical, and may be a much- 

 worn L. pseudcegon, Butl. ; but, from its poor condition, it is 

 impossible to be sure that it is distinct from L. japonica. 



9. Lyccena argia. 



Lyccena argia, Men6tries, Cat. Mus. Petr. Lep. ii. p. 125, pi. x. fig. 7 

 (1857). 



Three worn examples* Ashby Inlet, S.E. Corea {A. Car- 

 penter). 



One female specimen is much dwarfed ; and both females are 

 smaller than Japanese specimens. 



10. Lyccena cegonides. 



Lyccena cegonides, Bremer, Lep. Ost-Sib. p. 23. n. 128, pi. iii. fig. 8 

 (1864). 



Manchuria (W.. W. Perry). 



Both sexes somewhat worn ; the males are not quite so 

 broadly bordered with black as in Bremer's figure ; but as the 

 species evidently varies in this respect (" der schwarze Eand 

 ist noch breiter als bei L. Aegon und erstrecht sich oft bis iiber 

 die Mitte des Flugels" Bremer) , there can be little doubt about 

 their being conspecific. L. iburiensis of Japan is nearly allied 

 but larger, with shorter and less distinctly white fringes ; the 

 colour is also of a paler, more silver-greyish tint above ; and 

 below the wings are more dead-white, with larger well-defined 

 black spots, excepting towards the outer margin of primaries. 



11. Lyccena Levettii 7 sp. n. 



Allied to L. argiolus and L. ladonides. From the former 

 the male differs in the broader and less sharply defined blackish 

 border to the outer margins of the wings and the greyer tint
