* According to Staudinger and Bartel this species occurs in Amurland, &c, 

 but Jordan states that no Hemaris which can be considered a variety of, or 

 speciiically identical with, Htyus occurs in Amurland, China or Japan. The 

 so-called var. brnnncobasalis is, he says, the same as manderina which is 

 specifically identical with H. radians.
