174. Gurelca masuriensis, Butl. P. Z. S. 1875, p. 244, pi. 36 7 fig. 3 ,•

Differs from hyas in the thorax and abdomen being more 

 marbled with red-brown. Tore wing with the markings confused 

 by being more marbled ; the dark mark on inner margin near 

 outer angle absent. Hind wing much more produced at apex ; 

 the marginal band broader at the costa, narrower towards anal 

 angle, with its inner edge straight.

From the description this species would appear to differ from
