Two examples, coll. Pryer. 



Mr. Butler says of his A. inconspicua : " Most like A. phantasma, 

 but not much larger than Autophila dilucida of Europe .... The 

 specimen received from Mr. Pryer is rather darker than those from 

 Tokio, and has blackish spots on the discocellular below." 



Except that the coloration is a shade darker, my Japanese exam- 

 ples are exactly identical with A. dilucida.
