Both wings paler (whiter) than in the Indian form homophana homo- 

 phana Hmpsn. Fore wing with the dark fuscous median band rather 

 more solid, with rather acute distal projections on E 3 ; the black cell-spot

Bokhara : Garm (Harm), Peter the Great Eange, June, type $ in 

 coll. Joicey. Ferghana : Ispajran, North Alai, 3,400 metres ; August, 

 ? allotype in coll. Joicey, ? paratype in coll. L. B. Prout. All 

 received through Staudinger and Bang-Haas. 



On account of its rather slenderer build and slightly different facies, 

 it is possible this will prove a separate species. 



Subfamily Geometrinae.
