 Measurements : 



Length of body £6 (dried specimen)- £ 8 mm. 



Length of forewing S ( ,, ,, ) - 9 mm - 



Width of forewing 3-5 ( >» » ) - 4 mm - 



Length of hindwing 6 ( „ „ )- 7 mm. 



Habitat : Mt. Minomo near Osaka, a single female specimen (May, 

 '14), Mr. T. Esaki coll. 



Gifu, a single dried and somewhat mutilated male specimen, Mr. S. 

 Yamamura coll. 



Kyoto, three female specimens (October, '14), Mr. A Nohira coll. 



Remark : Judging from the specimens on hand, the wing-markings 

 of this species seem to be subject to much individual variation. While 

 Gifu and Kyoto specimens have forewings strongly marked, the Minomo 

 specimen shows much more restricted markings on forewing. 



The species probably passes winter in the state of imago.
