1881.] OF AMURLAND, NORTH CHINA, AND JAPAN. 907 



The Japanese form P. achinoides, Butl. (though this name should 

 perhaps be ignored, as having been given to a drawing), is not 

 materially different from Amur or European specimens, though it 

 usually has larger ocelli. 



Pararge deidamia (Ev.), Bull. Mosc. 1851, i. p. 617. 



P. menetriesii, Brem., Mots. Et. 1852, p. 59; Brem. & Grey, 

 Schmett. nordl. China, p. 8 ; Men. Cat. Mus. Petr. t. vi. fig. 4. 



Found in Amurland at Raddefskaia, also in North and Central 

 Japan, and at Chefoo by Pryer. A female specimen from Japan 

 agrees very well with Me'netries's figure. 



P. MAACKii, Brem. Lep. Ost-Sib. p. 22, t. iii. fig. 2. 

 Lasiommata marginalis, Motsch. Bull. Mosc. 18G6, i. p. 190. 

 From Ussuri and Baranofsky in Amurland ; found also at Tokio, 

 Japan, by Fenton. 



Epinephele hyperanthus, Linn. Syst. Nat. x. p. 471. 



Common in Amurland, where the type is larger, with larger spots 

 than in Europe. At Askold, however, it agrees very well with the 

 French type, according to Oberthiir. It is included by Murray in 

 his list of Japanese insects ; but I do not know on what authority. 



Lasiommata bremeri, Feld.Wien. ent. Mon. vi. p. 28(1862). 

 Described from Ningpo. I have never seen a specimen of this 

 species. 



Lethe syrcis. Hew. Ex. Butt. iv. Beb. t. iii. figs. 13, 14; Ober- 

 thiir, Et. Ent. vi. t. vii. fig. 3. 



This species appears not uncommon in Central China. I have 

 specimens from Ningpo ; and it occurs at Shanghai (Swhihoe) and 

 at Kouytcheou (Larffeteau). 



L. LANARis, Butl. Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 4, xix. p. 95. 



The type of this species, which I have seen, is from the Ningpo 

 hills, and what I believe is the same species is in the Hewitson 

 collection from Amoy. 



L. SATYRINA, Butl. Traus. Ent. Soc. 1871, p. 402. 



The male of this species is in Mr. Godman's collection from 

 Chekiang ; and the female is in the British Museum. It seems to be 

 a form intermediate between Lethe and Mycalesis. 



L. epimenides. Men. Schrenk's Reise, p. 39, t. iii. figs. 8, 9. 



Neope fentoni, Butl. Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 4, xix. p. 91. 



Not uncommon in various parts of the Amur region, and also 

 found in Central Japan. I see no difference of importance between 

 them. 



A variety of this species is distinguished as var. epaminonflas, 

 Stdgr. MSS., from Raddefskaia, Baranofsky, .ind Blagovestchensk. 

 It differs in its smaller size and more yellowish tint.
