C. adusta Esp. (Vol. 3, p. 131, pi. 32 c; Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 139). Heydemann writes to me: “to the race 
— vulturinea H.-S. from eastern Europe, pavida Bsd. joins on in the south east as the representative of the vulturinea.

marking, but rather darker, whilst the hindwings are much paler than in adusta. Lapland. 
C. bathensis Lulzau (Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 139). According to Heydemann, the comparison with pavida bathensis. 
must be erroneous, as the latter is pale. It should read: “is superficially not always easy to separate from dark 
adusta specimens, especially carpathica and aterrima." Our illustration on pi. 17 k is incorrect. 
C. compitalis Drt. (Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 140). Boitrsin holds that this had better be placed in the Genus compitcdis. 
Eumichtis Hbn. (Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 138), where it should be classified after muscosa Stgr. (Vol. 3, p. 130, pi. 32 b; 
Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 139).

(pi. 26 b). 
43. Genus : Antitype Hbn. 
A. bousseaui D. Luc. ( = rhododactyla Eerny). Forewings yellow-grey to salmon-pinkish, with somewhat bousseaui. 
darker speckles, generally with prominent ashen grey median area. Transverse lines all distinctly dentate and 
with slightly whitish edges on averted sides. Subterminal line irregularly serrated with faintly jialer outer edge. 
The large stigmata are somewhat lighter than ground and not clearly defined. Orbicular is round, reniform 
more quadrate. There are fairly heavy blackish dots on costa above the latter and at the origins of the trans¬ 
verse lines. Fringes pale and with broad grey-brown checks. Hindwings whitish with dusky veins and margin, 
faint discal spot and postmedian line. Fringes reddish yellow or rose; in the $ hindwings are more greyish 
Antennae have still shorter pectinations than the otherwise somewhat similar rebecca Stgr. Wing expanse: 
37—40 mm. From W. Algeria and Morocco. 
A. rosea Rothsch. (Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 142). — glaisi D. Luc. must be added as a synonym to this species, rosea. 
A. manisadjiani Stgr. (Vol. 3, p. 136, pi. 33 c). — rediens Wgnr. is a form in which basal and marginal manisad- 
areas of wing are shaded over, so that the whole appears more unicolourous. Wagner has described the adult .

larva as olive-green to olive-brown, dorsally delicately marbled with blackish. It has a wide dark dorsal stripe 
with pale intermediate line. On each side there is a fainter blackish subdorsal and wide yellowish green lateral 
line with whitish upper edge. Ventrally it is grass green; segmental junctures reddish, head and legs honey- 
yellow. The larva fed on dandelion and was fullfed in May, pupating in the earth, the moth emerging in August. 
A. grisea D. Luc. (Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 144). According to information from Boitrsin, this is synonymous grisea. 
with Bryomima johanna Stgr. (Vol. 3, p. 139, pi. 34 d) and must therefore be deleted from hei'e. 
A. apora Stgr. (Vol. 3, p. 137, pi. 33 g). Bottrsin has written to say, that this name should be with- apora. 
drawn, for after an examination of the type, it must be considered synonymous with Crymodes bischoffii H.-S. 
(Vol. 3, p. 176, pi. 42 a; Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 161). Therefore the species that Hampson held to be apora and which 
he described in his Cat. Lep. Plial. VI, p. 366 and illustrated on pi. CIV, fig. 29, will have to be renamed. I 
would propose to use the name of its re-discoverer and breeder, who sent me a £ for inspection, viz: 
A. schwingenschussi now. nov. (= apora Hmps. nec Stgr.) (pi. 26 g). Head and thorax white, with schwingen- 
slight brownish black admixture. Palpi and frons laterally with dark spots, abdomen inclined to yellowish schussi 
brown. Forewings grey-white, somewhat speckled with brownish black, more heavily dusted in central area. 
Both stigmata are large, somewhat quadrate, whitish with indistinct brown circumscriptions. Transverse lines 
as in dubia, the subterminal line indicated by black-brown scales on its inner edge, showing rather longer dent¬ 
ations on veins 2—4. Hindwings quite pure white in <$, shaded with grey and with darker marginal band in $. 
Palestine, Lebanon in October. No description of the larva has been given. 
A. astfalleri Schaw. (pi. 26 b) was overlooked and omitted. It can best be compared to suda Hbn.-G. astfalleri. 
(Vol. 3, p. 138, pi. 33 i; Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 144) and is of the same size. Ground colour has an olive-yellowish 
tone is and speckled with blackish. Central area shaded rather darker by the wide diffuse median shade. Basal 
area is not so pale as in suda, the complete white subterminal line stands out clearly from the dark peppered 
ground. Fringes with bold checks. Hindwings somewhat dull whitish, in the $ completely dark blackish grey 
with distinct postmedian and subterminal lines. Hitherto only obtained in S. Tyrol (Schnalser valley).
