subterminal line is whitish with darker inner fascia. Hindwings impure rosy whitish, faintly darker at margin. 
Wing expanse: 27—28 mm. Cyrenaica (Bardia) in November. 
90. Genus: fworlyiia Tr. 
G. leucostigma Hbn. (Vol. 3, p. 223, pi. 46 a). — iiigrobrunneata du B.-E. are specimens that are com¬ 
pletely black-brown with yellow stigma. - traegeri du B.-E. denotes specimens that are completely devoid 
of markings and glossy pale grey, only the reniform stigma is white, the shade between subterminal and outer 
margin is only visible in oblique lighting. Cranz in E. Prussia. 
91. Genus: Apamea Tr. 
A. crinanensis Burr. A- Fierce (Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 186). — jutlandica Hoffmeyer A Knudsen is the danish 
form, specimens with small, dark and narrow wings. 
93. Genus: Hydroecia Guen. 
H. murciegoi Fdz. (Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 188). As was to be supposed, this species proves itself to be syn¬ 
onymous with hucherardi Mab. (p. 187). 
H. cervago Ev. (Vol. 3, p. 225, pi. 46 c). — argillago Drt. (26 g) is a small clay coloured form in contrast 
to the fuscous type; the markings are identical. From Van in Turkish Armenia. 
H. xanthenes Germ. (Vol. 3. p. 227, pi. 46 f; Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 188). — ifranae Le Cerf is a small form 
of dark yellow-red ground colour, speckled with brown and admixed with ashen grey. The large pale yellow 
orbicular stigma is ringed with black and has a brown core. Reniform stigma is narrow with 5 or 6 yellow dots 
in its surround. Transverse lines are almost obsolete, postmedian band is ashen grey and not dentate, with 
diffuse brownish edge on both sides. Marginal area is brownish. Hindwings red-brownish white, veins and 
marginal streaks grey. Morocco (Central Atlas) in November. 
100. Genus: £lydua Wkr. 
E. bytinskii Schaw. (26 f). Forewings violet-brown, the black transverse lines very delicate, the posterior 
one with black dots on the veins. Orbicular stigma is a black dot, reniform with fine black circumscription, it 
contains 6 white dots. Between the stigmata is a dark shadow-like band.- The distinct subterminal line is pale, 
the marginal line pale with small black striations. Hindwings darker brown than forewings, with a dark discal 
spot that is situate close to the base and the costa. Wing expanse: 32 mm. China (Sin-foo). 
100a. Genus: Clhrysonic*ara n. gen. 
This new Genus is very similar to the Genus Nicara Moore that relates to a species occurring at Sikkim. 
Proboscis developed. The upturned palpi are very short with extremely small terminal segment. Frons smooth. 
Thorax with vestiture of hairs and scales and extended tuft on pro and metathorax. Abdomen without tufts. 
Venation normal, only on hindwings 6 and 7 with short stalk. I am creating the Genus for the “ Chrysoptera ” 
aureus from Tsekou described by Mr. O. Bang-Haas, which is not a Phytometrinae. 
Ch. aureus O.B.-H. (Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 223). We are able to give an illustration of this line species (pi. 26 g). 
The specimens are from Likiang in north Yunnan, where a large number were captured by Hone. 
102. Genus: Clalynaiiia Hbn. 
C.affinis L. (Vol. 3, p. 230, pi. 47 d; Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 189). bredemanni Warn, is probably a northern 
form, that may represent the type there, with almost or completely black hind wings. 
107. Genus: IDnargia Hbn. 
E. regina Stgr. (Vol. 3, p. 233, pi. 48 a; Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 190). badiofasciata Drt. (26 g) corresponds to 
the similarly denominated trapezina form. The triangular median area which is dark olive-brown and has a 
blackish reniform stigma, stands out from the pale yellowish grey ground. The subterminal row of black dots 
is distinct. From Van (Turkish Armenia). 
109a. Genus: StMliiia Urbahn. 
S. buttneri Her. (Vol. 3, p. 12. pi. 2 d; Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 191). This rare species has been discovered 
at some new localities such as in East Pomerania and from around Konigsberg (E. Prussia). At the latter place 
the moth was captured at a street lamp in the centre of the town.
