HADENA, Schr. 
Hadena lubrica. (Plate CXXVIII. fig. 9.) 
Allied to H. sapnrt(E of Europe ; larger and granite-grey ; the rufous markings absent, 
the pale patch below the discoidal spots much whiter ; the submarginal grey band Avider. 
Under surface altogether of a much more silvery shining grey colour. Expanse of wings 
44 millim. 
Dharmsala. 
KARANA, Moore. 
Karana similis. (Plate CXXVIII. fig. 8.) 
Nearly allied to A', gemmifera and K. Icetevirens *, but differs constantly in the form of 
the transverse silver band, the central loop of which is much shorter in front and has a 
decidedly longer termination behind the band ; the golden-green markings are fewer and less 
prominent, but the disc is crossed by a distinct sinuous lunulated silver-greyish stripe ; the 
submarginal golden spots are elongated so as to enclose the series of black spots, of which, in 
K. gemmifera, they form the anterior margins. Expanse of wings 3 J millim. 
Dharmsala; at sugar in August. 
Said to be a rare species. Four specimens were obtained. 
* DipMera laetevirens, Oberth. Etudes, x. pi. ii. fig, 6. It difi'ers only from K. gemmifera in its 
brown secondaries ; probably not a constant character.
