HADULA. Bv W. Warren. 



Section I: Antennae of d* bipectinate, the pectinations reaching- apex. 



tancrei. H. tancrei Grae.s. (21 d). Forewing whitish grey, dark-speckled, along costa and inner margin; 



between subcostal and submedian flushed with pale brownish ; veins finely dark ; antemedian line forming a 

 large projecting tooth on submedian fold, the black-edged claviform stigma from its apex; a pale patch at 

 base of vein 2; upper stigmata large, black-edged; the orbicular round or flattened; the reniform filled with 

 grey, its lower lobe enlarged and externally edged hy a curved white mark; submarginal line whitish, 

 graeseri. strongly dentate: hindwing luteous fuscous, the veins and termen darker; — ab. graeseri Fung, is smaller, 

 the forewing with less distinct markings. Only from W. and E. Turkestan. 



korghossi. H. korghossi Alph. (21 d). Paler and on the average smaller than tancrei; stigmata often obsolete 



in upper half: the orbicular sometimes confluent with the reniform, the whole base of which is edged by a 

 semi-elliptical white streak; submarginal line subdentate, with small teeth, not reaching termen; hindwing 

 whitish, more or less grey-tinged, with a grey submarginal cloud; in ? grey. Found in the Altai Mts., 

 W. Siberia, in E. Siberia, W. and E. Turkestan. 



Section II: Antennae of cf bipectinate, the apex simple. 



turpis. H. turpis Stgr. (20 f). Forewing grey white, slightly tinged with redbrown, and irrorated with 



fuscous; stigmata outlined with fuscous, the claviform darker; orbicular round; reniform with lower lobe 

 marked with fuscous; hindwing brownish grey. E. Turkestan. 



optima. H. optima Alph. (20 f). Closely resembling turpis, but the submarginal line is more strongly 



dentate, and the hindwing is whitish dusted with fuscous, and with fuscous termen, instead of being wholly 

 fuscous. Recorded from E. Turkestan and W. China. 



diiklika. H. chiklika Moore. Forewing grey, with thick fuscous speckling; the orbicular and reniform 



stigmata prominently grey in the darker median area; a dark shade before submarginal line; hindwing 

 brown, paler towards costa. South of Chiklik, Yarkand. Judging from the figure, this species must be 

 near H. optima Alph. 



Section HI: Antennae of c? serrate, with sessile fascicles of cilia. 



praecipua. H. praecipua Stgr. (21 e). Forewing dark grey brown, somewhat reddish-tinged; a conspicuous 



black streak on inner margin near base; stigmata all large, black-edged and filled in with dark fuscous; 

 submarginal line strongby dentate, preceded and followed by black wedge-shaped marks on each fold; 

 hindwing brownish fuscous, with a dark curved middle line. Kuku-Nor, Tibet. 



longicomis. H. longicornis Graes. (21 e). Forewing pale grey dusted with darker, slightly olive, grey; the 



median area somewhat darker; stigmata paler; the claviform at apex edged with black; the orbicular and 

 reniform separated b}' a dark quadrate blotch; submarginal line denoted by dark patches before it on the 

 folds and at costa; hindwing pale grey, with dark middle line; fringe white. E. Turkestan. 



Section IV: Antennae of d 1 ciliated. 



sabulorum. H. sabulorum Alph. (21 e). Forewing whitish grey, slightly flushed with ochreous and dusted with 



darker; stigmata black-edged, the small claviform most thickly; upper stigmata large; submarginal line 



preceded by black wedge-shaped marks; hindwing pale grey, the termen darker with the fringe white. 



distincta. Occurs in W. and E. Turkestan; — ab. distincta Stgr. from Issyk-kul is larger, with violet grey forewings, 



rhodina. and the underside more clearly marked; — rhodina Christ, from Ordubad, Armenia, described from 



a single cf, is rosy brown. 



lupa. H. lupa Christ. Forewing grey clouded with luteous ; stigmata distinctly outlined with fuscous , the 



claviform short and rounded, filled in with brown; subterminal line strongly dentate preceded by dark 

 sagittate marks; hindwing fuscous, whitish towards base, with two short darker obscure fasciae: recorded 

 from Schah-kuh, Persia; apparently near the preceding species. 



insolitn. H. insolita Stgr. (20 f). Forewing brownish grey; the lines brownish; stigmata indistinct, the clavi- 



form obsolete, the upper two large, incompletely defined; submarginal line brown, with some short black 

 marks before it; hindwing brownish white, darker along termen. W. and E. Turkestan. 



impia. H. impia Pilng. (20 f). Forewing grey, dusted and suffused with brown; lines brown defined by 



pale grey; claviform stigma small, with brown outline; orbicular and reniform with centres brown, outlined 

 with darker; submarginal line pale, defined by brown on inner side; hindwing fuscous brown. Recorded 

 from Aksu, E. Turkestan. 



Section V: Antennae of cf pubescent only. 



unica. H. unica Leech (21 e). Forewing brownish grey, dusted with darker; the median area fuscous; 



claviform stigma small, outlined with black: orbicular and reniform large, grey with brown centres and
