264 EUBLEMMA; PORPHYRINIA; COELITES; EUSTROTIA; EULOCASTRA. By Dr. M. Dratjdt. 
6. Genus: EublemiuaEk 
E. suava Hbn. (Vol. 3, p. 262, pi. 51 c; Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 202). - atlantica Schaw. <0 Stattermayer denotes 
a race that is larger on the average and has grey-black instead of brownish forewings. Median band is almost 
black, as is occasionally also the base and almost always the outer margin. The dark central band has either 
no white edge or only vestiges of white. Subterminal line is almost invisible. Hindwings black with or without 
curved white line. — viilftula Scliaiv. is an aberration of the above mentioned form, forewings are suffused with 
vinous red. Bone, Algeria in June. 
10. Genus: Porphyrinia 
P. symphona L. B. Prout (Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 204). According to the opinion of Zerny this can only 
be considered to be an albida form with hindwings suffused with grey-brown with a postmedian whitish trans¬ 
verse band, although specimens with white hindwings also occur. — alpina Schwing. occurs at an altitude of 
2700 m at Taclidirt in the High Atlas. The white ground colour of forewings is almost completely covered by 
scales of a grey-brown or nut-brown colour and the band markings are more prominent and contrasting. — 
marginata Schwing. is probably an aberrative form in which the inner two-thirds of both fore and hindwings 
are unicoloured white, the outer third being dusky grey-black with distinct white subterminal line and black 
marginal dots. 
P. elychrysi Ramb. (Vol. 3, p. 264, pi. 51 e). — schawerdae Byt.-S. denotes a much larger and darker 
form with bold olive-green tone, reduced white markings and much narrower white median band. Aritzo, Sar¬ 
dinia. dannehli Byt.-S. is the palest form from central Italy (Alban and Sabine mountains), pale olive-green 
to olive-yellow with wide white bands, the dark central area being reduced to a band. 
P. purci Hbn. (Vol. 3, p. 269. pi. 51 i;, Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 204). — zernyi Agenjo is a small form. Wings are 
white witli a mother-of-pearl sheen, central line enwidened, subterminal area with a greyish suffusion. Marginal 
line is bold; as in striata a blackish longitudinal streak extends towards the margin from the cell spot without 
however reaching quite so far. Hindwings faintly dusky. Burgos, Spain. 
P. purulenta Trti. is related to pura. Forewings white with a somewhat ivory-yellowish tone and faintly 
suffused with rose. A straight brownish band just before the centre; the brown marginal line and black cell 
spots are quite absent, but there are 4 small black dots in apical area. Hindwings white. Wing expanse: 18 mm. 
Cyrenaica in May. 
P. purinula Trti. is only half as large as the preceding species. Forewings pure white with straight brown¬ 
ish central band, as in purulenta and with a few sparse brownish scales in marginal area at apex and anal angle. 
J'ringes white without marginal line. Hindwings glossy white. Wing expanse only 8 mm. Somewhat resembles 
pura , but the 2 black cell spots are absent. Cyrenaica in May. 
28a. Genus: C-oeliies Trti. 
This generic name is occupied and must therefore be substituted by — Coeloturatia Strd. 
29. Genus: Eustrotia Hbn. 
E. uncula Cl. (Vol. 3, p. 280, pi. 52 e; Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 207). — rufotincta Daniel & Korb has a rich fuscous 
ground colour, which is deeper towards costa. The flesh coloured streak on costa is roseate, as is also the reni- 
forrn stigma. The pale marginal line is faint and yellowish, the paler whitish edge towards the margin is absent. 
Hindwings with reddish hue. Central Hungary. 
30. Genus: Eulocastra Btl.r. 
E. mesozona Hmps. (Vol. 3, p. 282, pi. 52 f). Count Titrati asserts that mesozona , described from Aden, 
is a separate species, differing from related forms by the central band that projects outwards in two dentations. 
E. mediana Stgr. (Vol. 3, p. 282) is not synonymous with the preceding species, but, as was already 
surmised by H amps ON, a genuine species. It differs from mesozona by the central band, which is angulated 
only once outwardly below the costa and its inner outline forms an open obtuse angle towards the base. I have 
specimens from Jerusalem before me and an illustration is now given (pi. 26 g). 
E. bipartita H.-S. (Vol. 3, p. 282, pi. 52 g) is a very rare species, only known to occur in Sicily. The 
median band is straight, enclosed by two parallel brown lines and without any projecting angles. In the $ basal 
and marginal areas are much darker brown than in J 1 , also the hindwings are much darker. 
E. capnoessa Zerny (Suppl. Vol. 3, p. 208) is synonymous with “ Colobochyla ” platyzona Led. (Vol. 3, 
p. 398) and should be classified in the Genus Eulocastra.
