" Kevocat P. siihhyaJinam Brem. Amurensem." (Mabille, I. c.) 
This species is closely allied to A. suhliyalina, var. thibetana, but is readily 
separated therefrom by the discal spots on secondaries. The male type here 
figured (Plate XLI. fig. 14), kindly lent to me by M. Mabille, was taken by 
I'Abbe David in Moupin. My collectors failed to meet with this sex, but I 
received a female example from Omei-shan (Plate XLI. fig. 7), which seems 
to agree very well with the description of that sex, and another female from 
Moupin (Plate XLI. fig. 10) which agrees better with the male in the 
colour of the spots on secondaries, as these are white instead of yellow. 
1 propose that this form be known as var. consors. 
Augiades sylvanoides, sp. nov. (Plate XLI. fig. 4, 6.) 
In general characters this species resembles A. suhhijallna, but it is smaller and has no semi- 
transparent spots, in which respect it agrees with A. sylvaiius. 
Male. Fuliginous brown. Primaries are ornamented with fulvous as follows : — a streak along the 
costa extending from base of the wing to the first of three subapical elongate spots ; a streak 
in discoidal cell along median nervure surmounted by a linear sjjot at end of cell ; below the 
subapical spots are two round ones, and placed obliquely under these are three other spots, 
the first triangular, the second quadrate, the third oblong and only separated from a basal 
cuneiform dash by the lower portion of the black sexual brand, which is similar in shape to 
that of male A. suh]u,alina. Secondaries fuliginous, slightly suffused with fulvous on the 
basal area ; five fulvous spots, arranged as in A. suhhyaUna, but more clearly defined ; central 
spot fulvous, not always distinct. Fringes fulvous grey, those of primaries tinged with dusky. 
Under surface similar to that of A. suhhyaUna, but the secondaries have a slight greenish 
tinge, and, as on upper surface, there are no semitransparent spots on primaries. 
Female. Almost black ; bases of all the wings, especially of the secondaries, dusted with fulvous ; 
primaries have a double fulvous spot at eud of discoidal ceil and a punctiform spot in the first 
median fork ; beyond there is a series of fulvous spots as in the male ; the markings on 
secondaries are similar to those of A. snbhyalina, var. thibetana, on the upper surface, but 
are identical with the male on under surface. 
Expanse 33-35 millim. 
Not uncommon at Ta-chieu-lu and Wa-ssu-kow in June and July.
