" Alis supra : fulvis, venis margiiiibusque fuscis, punctis inaculisquc flavis, iisque in ala antica 

 paene hyalinis, linea discoidali crassa nigra ; subtus : fulvis, maculis flavis, fasciatis, margine 

 intcmo nigro : posticis fulvis, flavo-maculatis. 



" Expans. alar, antic, unc. l^." {Bremer 6^ Greij, I. c.) 



Ftmale. The spots arc more transparent, and the primaries rather rounder on outer margin.

 infcricurca est jilus obscur et le nombre des taches plus claires y est reduit." {Ohertlmr, I. c.) 



This form is chiefly distinguished from typical suhhyalina by its smaller 

 size and the darker coloration of both surfaces. It is common in Western 

 and Central China, whence I have also received specimens which are 

 intermediate between fhihetana and suhhyalina. 



I met with A. suhhyalina commonly in June at Gensan and Fusan in the 

 Corea. Herz also took it in Corea and in the neighbourhood of Pekin. It is 

 found in Amurland, in Yesso, and probably in the mountainous parts of 

 Central Japan. 



The subhyaline spots of primaries and more prominent white spots on under 

 surface of secondaries will at once separate this species from sylvanus. 



Distribution. Northern, Western, and Central China, Japan, Corea, 

 Amurland. 



Augiades cratasis, sp. nov. (Plate XLI. figs. 9 $ , ll s .) 



Male. Very similar to the same sex of A. suhhyalina, but larger. The spots on primaries are 

 more transparent, and the sexual mark is traversed by a whitish line interrupted by the first 

 median nervule. The fourth and fifth spots on secondaries are bolder, and the second and 

 third are either faint or entirely absent. 



Female. Darker than the male; all the spots on primaries are larger and whiter; those on 

 secondaries are paler. 



Under surface in both sexes browner than in either A. suhhyalina or var. thihetana. 



Expanse, c7 43-45 millim., $ 44-47 millim. 



Occurs commonly at Omei-shan in July and August ; 1 have also received 

 it from Chia-kou-ho.
