remarks that lie has taken both sexes at from 7,000 to 10,000 feet in 

 July and August. 



234. P. pallida, Butl. 

 Sikhim. I have not seen this species. (Sir George Hampson 

 identifies this with the Japanese insect described by Butler. What 

 I have so named by him seems to be different, but it is not in good 

 enough condition to describe. — H. J. E.) 



235. P. ochracea, Moore. 

 Sikhim. I have not seen this. 



236. P. galbana, Swinh. 



Sikhim. Only females of this and the preceding species were ap- 

 parently available for description. I do not know it. 

 238. P. eupatagia, Hmpsn. 

 Sikhim. The type of this is in Mr. Knyvett's collection. 



239. P. aurata, Moore. 

 Sikhim. I have not received this. 



241. P. siJehima, Moore. 

 Sikhim. Mr. Elwes says that this is common at light, at Darjeeling, 

 in July. 



242. P. nigropuncta, Hmpsn. 

 Sikhim and Bhutan. I have four males taken at 12,000 feet in 

 Bhutan in July. The antenuse of the male are worthy of remark ; the 

 fascicles of long cilia are given off from each side of the antenna? in 

 pairs, and the basal portion of each tuft is agglutinated, so that the cilia 

 appear to rise from short stems. In Antheua servula, Drury, Spatalia 

 -argentifera, Wlk., Fentonia apicalis, Moore, and a few others of the 

 family, this agglutination is extended to two-thirds or more of the 

 whole branch, giving the appearance of pectinations with tufts at their 

 extremities. 



243. P. nigrofasciata, Hmpsn. 

 Sikhim. I have only seen one specimen of this species which was 

 taken in Darjeeling by Dr. Pilcher. Mr. Elwes says that the type is 

 the only specimen he has seen, and was taken in July. 

 244. P. basistriga, Moore. 

 Sikhim. (The type of this being in Dr. Staudinger's collection has 

 not been certainly identified by Sir George Hampson, and may be a 

 variety of P. nigrofaseiata. — H. J. E.)
