S1DERIDIS. By Dr. M. Draudt. 11!) 
there are specimens in the Pungeler collection in the Berlin Museum. — limbopuncta Strd. denotes the more 
usual form with black marginal dots on forewings. East Asia. 
H. albicosta Moore (Vol. 3, p. 96, pi. 23 f). - uniformis Strd. has forewings more uniformly suffused 
with fuscous, the pale band diffusing before apex. Eastern and southern Asia. 
H. flavostigma Brern. (Vol. 3, p. 96, pi. 24 a). The illustration on pi. 24 a does not in the least represent 
this species. The type from the Amur looks almost like the illustrations of singularis on pi. 23 f, g, only it 
is more whitish in tone of ground colour. — ochracea Strd. must be considered a synonym of singularis. The 
type of the latter emanates from Yokohama and corresponds exactly also to the description of Warren of 
singularis in the Main Volume. 
H. macaria Rbl. resembles a small pale unipuncta, but has more tenuated antennae, shorter wing 
contour, longer anal tuft and besides, the long black hairs at base on underside of abdomen, indicate the rela¬ 
tionship with lithargyria. Forewings yellow-brown, slightly reddish outwardly, with faintly indicated reddish 
reniform stigma, edged below by a small white spot extending along the vein. Posterior to same a boldly curved 
row of black dots on the veins. On the margin are small black triangular marks, fringes dark brown. Hind- 
wings blackish grey with white fringes having black extremities. Cyprus (Nicosia). 
H. seifersi Rangn. appears to be very close to littoralis (Vol. 3, p. 96, pi. 23 g) but is somewhat smaller. 
Forewings silky and glossy yellowish with slightly reddish tone. Somewhat whiter on costa, along mediana 
and widely white on veins 3 and 4. Veins in marginal area finely white. Below the white mediana a blackish 
shade, which close to end of cell also appears above the mediana and which expands between veins 3 and 5 
towards the margin. Just before the margin it is continued also above vein 5. Hindwings silvery white. Wing 
expanse: 28— 30 mm. Guberla (S. Urals). Filipjev writes to say that he considers the species identical with 
deserticola Bart., which however is not possible according to a cotype of the latter, which is now before me. 
41. Genus: Sicleridis Him. 
S. conigera Schiff. (Vol. 3, p. 96, pi. 23 g). — ab. obscura Hoffin. & Klos refers to very dark brown 
specimens from Styria, which however are not identical with the english melanic suffusa. — mezeyi Diozh. 
denotes a brick-red <$ that is finely dusted with brown, with very distinct black-brown lines. The white spot 
below the dark orange reniform stigma is very distinct. Hindwings yellow-grey with reddish fringes. S. Car¬ 
pathians (Ret.yezat mountains). 
S. vitellina Hbn. (Vol. 3, p. 97, pi. 23 i). — lacteicolor Rothsch. is synonymous with pallida Warr. 
decolorata Did. is an extreme form of pallida Warr., which was mentioned in Main Volume. It is very small, 
wing expanse 27—32 mm, ground colour almost whitish, at best yellowish white, completely devoid of mark¬ 
ings. In pallida the transverse lines and cell spot are still discernible. Hindwings pure white, silky and glossy 
and rather iridescent. Southern Abruzzi at abt. 1000 -1800 m altitude. - grisescens Dhl. is a form that in¬ 
clines towards grey or yellow-grey, from the mountains of the S. Tyrol, the Sabine and Samnit mountains. - 
satin atior Did. is the counterpart of the extreme pallida forms. It is of almost rusty red colouration and very 
boldly marked. Hindwings darker with prominently darker veins and iridescent. These are very large, strongly 
built specimens occurring particularly in Italy (Tivoli, Campagna). 
S. evidens Hbn. (Vol. 3, p. 97, pi. 23 i). — lanipra Schaw. is a much larger race (38—40 mm) from Bosnia 
and Carniola, of dark fuscous colouration. 
S. prominens Wkr. (Vol. 3, p. 97). We are able to give a good illustration of this species (15 h) which 
was not illustrated in Main Volume. — tiburtina Trti. (15 h) is a large, heavily built race, rather more densely 
interspersed with black and with bold black marginal dots. Collar has 2 wide grey transverse bands. Abdomen 
and anal tuft grey, the fore tibiae are longer and more densely covered with grey hairs. Tivoli. 
S. velutina Ev. (Vol. 3, p. 97, pi. 23 k). The illustration in Main Volume was not good, we are giving 
a better picture here (15 h). coreana Mats is synonymous, as both the description and the illustration correspond 
to this species. — enervata Warn, is a form, which in contrast to the greyish type-form has no prominently 
pale veins and is of browner colouration, markings being diffuse. From the Amur. 
S. comma L. (Vol. 3, p. 98, pi. 23 a). Standfuss occupied himself with this species and ascertained 
in conjunction with Pungeler that the main german form - turbida Hbn. (228) should be removed from the 
synonyms anti considered the type form. It is the usual pale sandy brown form, to which comma Tutt would 
be added as synonym, whilst Linne’s type would denote the alpine darker grey specimens of turbida Hbn. 618, 
with which suffusa Tutt and engadensis Wgnr. would coincide. — rhodocomma Pglr. is not a genuine species, 
but only a form of comma from Turkestan. We are giving an illustration (15 h).
