unicoloured grey-brown, only eyespots with yellow surrounds. Hindwings dusky grey, markings diffuse. Ara- 
shonis. sagun-gol. — shonis Mats. (10 f) sub-form to walkyria Fixs. Upperside similar to same. The single eyespot on 
forewings still larger. Eyespots of hindwing elongated inwards. Underside more inclined to resemble tarpeja 
as the outer edge middle band of hindwing runs straight from vein 4 to innermargin and not undulating as in 
coreana. nanna. Also the small eyespot over vein 2 is more similar to that of tarpeja. coreana Mats, is still more 
similar to tarpeja-lederi Alph. On forewings 2 small eyespots over veins 2 and 5, on hindwings 4 eyespots 
okamotonis. with white pupils. - okamotonis Mats. (10 f). More heavily marked than coreana. Upperside closely resembles 
the only tarpeja $ at my disposal. The dark shadow at disco-cellular and vein 4 is still more heavy than 
in same. Eyespots as in coreana. Underside also similar to tarpeja. All 3 from Corea. If this is not a separate 
species it seems to me it would be better classified under tarpeja and not under nanna. 
velteda. 0. velleda Aust. (10 e). Similar to sculda Ev. Ground colour ochreous. Disco-cellular of forewing and 
margin of both wings dark brown. An eyespot over vein 5 on forewing and underneath it a black dot. On 
hindwing black eyespots above veins 2—5. Middle band reflects through from underneath. Same is dis¬ 
tinct on underside, behind the cell it overlaps the anal angle and is incurved towards the costa, 4 eyespots 
heavily marked. Siberia without further details.

13. Genus: Satyrus Lair. 
pumilus. Sat. puniilus FIdr. In Vol. 1, p. 122 the forms sikkimensis Stgr. and iole Leech have been classified as 
palaearcticus Stgr., which is considered to be a separate species. Bang-Ha as, who certainly disposes of suffi¬ 
cient material, considers them forms of pumilus , which unfortunately is a rare form that was first described 
nanshanica. and is a sub-form to palaearcticus which is commoner but which was described later. — nanshanica Gr.-Grsh. 
illustris. Ground colour buffbrown. Margin blackish otherwise like palaearcticus. Nanshan. illustris Bang.-Id. (10 f). 
Ground colour similar, somewhat paler in the $. Band yellowish ($) or white ($) dissolved into spots on 
unicolor, fore wing. Margin heavily black in the Specimens with very obsolete band are unicolor Bang-H. Both from 
grand is. the Richthofen Mountains. grandis Riley. Close to bicolor Seitz but with more extensive bright red-yellow 
on upperside and margin blacker. On underside of hindwings the bright middle band is narrow. $ 50 mm. 
divnogorski. Mount Everest. divnogorski Bang-H. Ground colour reddish-brown. Eyespot on forewings better developed. 
buddha. Bands a little wider than in sikkimensis Stgr. (Vol. 1, p. 122). - buddha Bang-H. Dark brown as iole Leech. 
Spots very small, white not yellowish. Kuku-nor. 
swaha. S. swaha Roll. (Vol. 1, p. 122). In the form gilgitica Tytl. the band on forewing is white on upper 
gilgitica. an q underside. Underside of both wings very pale grey. Gilgit. — kurrania Evans from Chitral is a transition 
tellula. between swaha and gilgitica. — tellula Fruhst. from Mardam in Chitral has a straw-yellow band uniformly on 
garuna. both wings. - garuna Fruhst. from Simla really belongs to Indian regions, it has wider bands, which are 
always yellow especially on underside. 
padma. S. padina Roll. (Vol. 1, p. 122). The west Chinese form is separated as verres Fruhst. It is larger than 
rand is' ^ IC norma l form from Kashmir. Underside of both wings paler, heavily sprinkled with white. — grandis 
' Tytl. has bands on hindwings angulated not straight. The band is white on underside of both wings, the 
ground colour is greyer. The white spots on the forewing in areas 3 and 4 merge. 82—98 mm. West Gilgit. 
In east Gilgit the band on hindwings is straight. 
circe. S. circe F. (Vol. 1, p. 123). As in most of the Satyrides specimens also occur here with supernummer- 
pundaia. arv eyespots above vein 3 on forewings: punctata Aign. In the following forms this name is not repeated 
maga. in each instance. - maga Fruhst. has wide pale bands finely divided up distally, sharply separated from 
deep black ground. On underside the white middle band of hindwing is edged with yellow distally, contract- 
venefica. ing towards the anal angle. Vendee. venefica Fruhst. is a large race from South Erance. Wings similar to 
asiatica Seitz (Vol. 1, plate 41 e). Band of hindwings often edged with reddish distally, very narrow on under- 
teleuda. side. Var, South of France. — teleuda Fruhst. Similar to a small venefica, but the white band on both wings 
reddish outwardly. On underside not so fine as the Castilian form, but the yellowish-white band on hind- 
hispanica. wings more extended, covered with brown-grey in the Corsica, Sardinia. — hispanica Spul. (= paraleuca 
Fruhst.). Bands of fore wings dissolved into spots as in asiatica. On hindwings band somewhat wider, less 
pointed at end. Chiclana, Albarracin, Barcelona. No special name has been given to forms from the North 
itala. and South slopes of the Alps. — itala Vrty. Almost as large as the hungarian race, but band narrower and 
asperomon- never reddish as in the southern french race. 58—70 mm. Tuscany. — Far in the south we have asperomontana 
tana. Stauder. Similar to asiatica, but bands are whiter, those of hindwings wider. Underside dark and well mottl- 
defecta. ed. — defecta Stauder is a specimen of this race on which the last small white spot on the inner margin 
of forewings is quite absent. Aspromonte, Calabria. — On the other hand the apical eyespot of forewings can 
bertrami. be much enlarged so that the 3 white spots near by almost disappear: bertranii Zobr. from Aspromonte and 
illecebra. Sicily. —From the east of the territory over which it is distributed: illecebra Fruhst. The largest race
