TYANA; EARIAS; HYLOPHILA; HYLOPHILINA. By Dr. M. Draudt. 
21 I 
Subfamily: Acontianae. 
5. Genus : Tyana Wkr. 
T. falcata Wkr. (Vol. 3, p. 295, pi. 53 li). — walkeri Strd. lias the back of the head and scapulae col- wulkcri. 
oured yellow, whilst costa of forewings is yellow-white. W. China. 
6. Genus: Karlas Hbn. 
E. albovetiosana Obth. is related to vernana. Forewings delicate green with a curved very fine double alboveno- 
darker green postmedian that is intertilled with white. Costa and base of inner margin are white, the area 
before the posterior transverse line is dotted and striated with darker green. Hindwings silvery white and 
silky. Underside of forewings pale green with white veins and postmedian. A very delicate and easily damaged 
species from Algeria (Lambessa, Sebdou, Batna). 
E. chlorophyllana, Stgr. (Vol. 3, p. 296). — roseana Shelj. is placed by the author to turana Gr.Gr. ro.seana. 
which Warren had held to be synonymous (vide Main Volume), but which is quite possibly correctly deemed 
to be a genuine species. Wing contour as in chlorana, short and wide. Head white, thorax terracotta-red like 
the forewings. Abdomen white, somewhat reddish at tip. Costa of forewings white, marginal area inclined 
to brown, a row of black dots on margin and a very indistinct discal spot. There are 2 transverse lines, a 
central and postmedian one, which are similarly drawn to those of insulana, but are distincter and not so close 
together. Hindwings pure white, the upper 2 / 3 rds of the outer margin orange-yellow, fringes white. Length 
of forewings: 9 mm. Amu-darka (Dargan-ata). 
E. vernana Hbn. (Vol. 3, p. 296, pi. 53 h). — caeruleoviridis Strd. has forewings and thorax inclined caeruleo- 
to blue-greenish. viridis. 
E. roseifera Btlr. (Vol. 3, p. 296, pi. 53 i) is held by Filipjev to be a genuine species and this is prob- roseifera. 
ably correct. — erutoescens Stgr. is not synonymous with it. It is impossible at present to decide to which of erubcscens. 
these, the following 3 forms belong. They were mentioned by Hampson, and have now been denominated by 
Strand: — diseoidalis Strd. has a small broAvn discal spot on forewings. — deearneata Strd. has no reddish discoidnlis. 
suffusion and — dorsalis Strd. in contrast, has the entire wing from base to margin, except for the inner deearneata. 
marginal area, suffused with red. E. Asia. 
E. syrticola Trti. is smaller than the subsequent insulana, outer margin of forewings is more oblique, syrticola. 
Forewings devoid of markings, intensively dull green withoirt transverse markings. Costa is yellowish white, 
fringes green. Hindwings glossily pure white. Underside of forewings rosy white with green fringes, hindwings 
irisating white. Legs white. Wing expanse: 17 mm. Cyrenaica (Agedabia). 
E. insulana Bsdv. (Vol. 3, p. 296, pi. 53 i). — rufovitta Strd. resembles semifascia Warr., but the oblique rufovitta. 
band is intensively red-brown between vein 6 and the inner margin. Tips of fringes are similarly coloured. 
This is the ab. 4 of Hampson, Warren had expressly combined ab. 3 (= semifascia ) with ab. 4, which is 
perhaps better, than creating a fresh name. 
7. Genus: Iffylopliila Hbn. 
H. prasinana L. (Vol. 3, p. 297, pi. 53 k). — albidula Strd. are 7$ that are almost a bleached white, albidula. 
— dorsilutea Strd. have an extensive yellow inner margin to forewings, the red colouration is absent from the dorsilutea. 
costa towards apex. — hispanica Fdz. recently described, is probably a form of the following species: fiorii. hispanica. 
As in hongarica only 2 white transverse lines are present. Costa is not red in <$, fringes of hindwings are pure 
white. In the $ the costa is not white but only somewhat paler green, inner margin is also green. Bejar 
(Salamanca). 
H. fiorii Costni. is smaller than prasinana , £ leaf-green, faintly and uniformly suffused, $ paler and fiorii. 
inclined to emerald green, with 2 oblique white lines, narrower than in prasinana , the inner one particularly 
oblique and not quite complete. Fringes of forewings, in the also those of the hindwings, reddish or blackish 
interrupted at terminals of veins. Hindwings in golden yellow, white in $. Antennae and tibiae vellow-red. 
Palpi rather more projecting than in prasinana. Wing expanse: 29—30 mm. Upper Italy. In all probability 
this is identical with liongarica Warr. (Vol. 3, p. 297, pi. 53 k) and possibly conspecific with hispanica Fdz. 
fiorii has the right of priority (having been described in 1911), but it is possible that hongarica and hispanica 
may be retained as denominations of races, even though the differences are negligible. 
8. Genus: Ifylophiliua Warr. 
H. bicolorana Fuessl. (Vol. 3, p. 297, pi. 53 m). — intersectana Costni. is a very small form, probably intersee- 
a 2nd generation, with reddish and white checked, not pure white, fringes. Occurs in August and Septembei 
in Upper Italy.
