ANOMOGYNA. By Dr. Corti and Dr. M. Dratjdt. 
Subgenus: Pachrsobia Guen. 
tecta. p. tecta Hhn. (Vol. 3, p. 39, pi. 8 g, h). The illustrations are not good and we are giving fresh illu- 
trations here (12 g). Corti removes this species and the following from Rhyacia. They are mostly newly 
described and he classifies them as a group under the above Subgenus. Whilst they certainly form a charact¬ 
eristic little group, it is doubtful whether there is any purpose in placing them in a separate Genus. 
banghaasi. P. basighaasi Corti ined. (12 h) is larger and sleeker than the preceding species, more thinly scaled, 
greyer in shade and with more conspicuous whitish grey stigmata, marginal area and interfilling between 
the double transverse lines. In front of the sharply outlined subterminal line there are more or less distinct 
blackish sagittate marks. Forewings brownish grey with blackish central lunule, postmedian and subterminal 
shades. From Moncly in the Sajan mountains. 
sajana. P. sajana Tshetv. (12 h) is also fairly close to tecta. Forewings whitish grey, sparsely peppered with 
reddish brown. Tins is more prominent in central area and it has a deep black-brown patch in the cell 
between the large whitish stigmata. Both transverse lines are faint, double, the veins beyond the outer line 
being black-white. The position of the subterminal line is indicated by black sagittate marks on costa, in 
centre and above anal angle. Margin and fringes are inclined towards rufous with blackish marginal lunules. 
Hindwings pale brown, darker at base and with discal lunule, postmedian and subterminal bands. Between 
the latter and the blackish marginal line, there is a whitish area. Sajan territory. 
amathusia. P- amathusia 0. B.-H. (12 h). According to Corti this is not identical with the preceding species. 
It is larger and more robustly built, much more dusted with rufous; orbicular stigma more oblique; reniform 
stigma elongated inwards along the widely white median nervure; claviform stigma longer and more pointed. 
Hindwings uniformly darker brown. From Munku Sardyk in the Sajan district. 
amaloria. P. amatoria Corti ined. (12 h) is also very similar. It is as large as .sajana but much more uniformly 
red-brown. Markings otherwise as amathusia, but the transverse lines are not so sharply dentate, the reniform 
stigma is not so conspicuously elongated inwards, the central area is wider, claviform stigma is quite extinct. 
The chief difference however is a black-brown basal ray-like streak. Hindwings uniformly very pale brownish. 
From the mountains around Baikal. Type in the collection of Corti. 
wockei. P. vvockei Mdschl. ( = scropulana Morr.) (Vol. 3, p. 50). It was already explained on p. 29 of this 
Supplement that this species has no relationship with westermanni Stgr. The illustration on pi. lib indicated 
scropulana (not scopulana) Morr.. which is an american species. We are now giving (12 h) a good illustration 
of the genuine wockei from a specimen from Sajan (Tunkun). Forewings reddish brown, costal and basal 
areas dusted with pale bluish grey, as also are the orbicular stigma and median nervure. Reniform stigma 
is more reddish brown, ground colour of cell between the stigmata is deep black-brown. A faint black ray- 
like dash at base below median nervure. Transverse lines double, the anterior one almost straight and 
vertical, the posterior line dentate. The pale subterminal line has a dark inner edge. Hindwings pale brownish 
tundrana. grey with discal lunule, postmedian and very wide dark marginal bands. Sajan. — tundrana A. B.-H. denotes 
specimens from Sajan and Ala-Tau with a uniform brownish colouration devoid of the bluish grey dusting. 
desiderata. P. desiderata Corti ined. (12 i) is very similarly marked to wockei, but is smaller and has narrower, 
more pointed wings. Ground colour is pale grey-brown, entirely without any reddish or violet shade. Trans¬ 
verse lines are not double, but faint, with whitish edges on averted sides. The anterior line is undulate and 
not straight. Marginal band of hindwings narrower. Also from Sajan (Tunkun) . Type in the collection of 
Corti. 
veruta P. veruta Corti ined. (12 i) is marked as desiderata, but in colouration as wockei. It is readily separable 
owing to the heavier serrate antennae of having bold fascicles of cilia. Orbicular stigma is triangular, 
elliptical at top and diffusing into the costa, that is of the same shade. Reniform stigma is much narrower 
than in related species and from same a distinct central shade extends to inner margin. The posterior trans¬ 
verse line is only faintly dentate, it is double, the inner part is red-brown, the outer a grey shadowy band. 
Subterminal line is fainter than in the preceding species. Hindwings darker brown, otherwise identical, but 
the postmedian band is more deeply angulated below the cell. Fringes ochreous reddish. Munku Sardyk (Sajan). 
Type in the collection of Corti. 
Jielenae. P. faeletiae Corti ined. (12 i) closely resembles veruta, but is quite pale grey-brown without any 
reddish or violet tone, also the dark patch in the cell between the stigmata is quite absent, whilst the central 
shade is more distinct. Otherwise the markings are identical, so that this is perhaps only a pale and mono¬ 
tonously coloured form of the preceding species. Sajan mountains. Type in the collection of Corti. 
nolens. P. nolens Corti ined. (12 i) still belongs to the same group and most resembles tecta. It is pale rufous, 
the central area scarcely darker, the transverse lines are simple, deeply black with undulate dentations. The 
small stigmata in a blackened cell. Subterminal line has a narrow inner blackish edge. On the margin there
