G. dominula L. (Vol. 2, p. 101, pi. 18 e) — hamelensis Pfl. is illustrated (7 h), this is the form in which 
all spots of forewings are white. — bithynica Stgr. (7 h) is a genuine race; occasionally specimens also occur in bithynica. 
Germany with all spots of foi’ewings ochreous yellow, such specimens should be named — ochromaculata h uchs ochro- 
( = spaneyi Strd.). The illustration in main Volume on pi. 18 e as “bithynica ” does not refer to this form, but 
to a specimen inclining towards romanovi. — rossica Kol. (7 h) is freshly illustrated; the brilliant green ground 
colour is characteristic. Further we are illustrating lusitanica Stgr. (7 h) and paucimacula Schultz (7 i), as well 
as a very fine specimen coming between conferta Schuliz and fasciata Spul., which is in the Munich State Museum 
(as “ dominula ab.”) and which was very kindly placed at our disposal. — pompalis Nitsche. (= subalpina DM.) pompahs. 
is a fine and large race from the S. Tyrol, especially from the neighbourhood of Waidbruck. lorewings very 
glossy, steel-blue with normal, although often somewhat reduced, spot-marking, hindwings deep carmine red 
with confluent marginal spots forming a band. Wing expanse 55 mm. — postochrea Stdr. are specimens with postochrea. 
deep ochreous yellow hindwings from the Mte Faito. — majellica Dhl. (7 h) is the very characteristic racial majeUica. 
form from the southern Abruzzi; small with heavy green gloss on forewings with rather small but normal spot 
marking, hindwings ochreous yellow with complete wide black marginal band, more or less evenly edged on 
inner side and showing no inclination to form ray-like extensions. 
C. philippsi Bartel (Vol. 2, p. 101) (7 i). We are able to illustrate the, so far unique, type specimen ol philippsi. 
Dr. Philipps, thanks to the kindness of the owner. 
G. quadripunctaria Poda (Vol. 2, p. 101, pi. 18 f). — nigricans Kemp. (= luctuosa Oberth.) (7 i) is now nigricans. 
illustrated. — tristis Sterzl are transition forms, white stripes considerably reduced, hindwings dusted over tristis. 
grey-black. — latefasciata Bub. has a narrower and longer inner transverse stripe on fore wings; hindwings latefasciata. 
are paler red, marginal spots form a complete band. — typhloteisa Pfeiffer & Buholzer is a counterpart to typhloteisa. 
nigricans, in extreme forms all the black has disappeared, except for a longitudinal streak at base above sub- 
median nervure and a spot at close of cell; hindwings red and devoid of spots; transition forms to this, show 
remnants of the dark ground colour reflected through in pale ochreous brown. From around the Pilatus. - 
splendidior Tams is a race from N. W. Persia and Armenia; fore wings a brilliantly green glossy black, bands splendidior. 
wide and a bright yellowish red; hindwings a vivid scarlet red with complete marginal band. 
G. menetriesi Ev. (Vol. 2, p. 102, pi. 18 f). Quite close to this form, miranda Obth. (Vol. 2, p. 72, pi. 13 f) 
classified under Coscinia should be placed. 
C. coreana Mats, is to be placed after histrio Wkr. (Vol. 2, p. 102, pi. 18 g). It differs by orange-yellow coreana. 
palpi, only the base and a streak on the outer side of middle segment are black. The light yellow spots on 
forewings are much larger, more numerous and of slightly different shape: on costa there are 5 spots, the orange- 
yellow cliscal spot is comma shaped, the tornus spot is crescent shaped, there are 2 conjoined cuneiform spots 
in centre of cellule 1 b, in centre of inner margin there is a yellow spot with yellow hairs. Hindwings with 4 
rows of black spots. Legs are orange with black spots. Wing expanse: 73 mm. Corea (Gensan). 
71a. Genus: itfeoclieloiiia Draes. 
The species placed in this Genus are nearest to Gallimorpha Latr. and Galpenia Moore. The accessory 
cell of forewings is absent, veins 11 and 12 do not anastomose, vein 6, or at all events 7 to 10 stalked. Hind¬ 
wings with veins 3 and 4 and 6 and 7 stalked. Hind tibiae with 2 pairs of spurs. Its classification under 
Oroncus Sz. is excluded. 
Type: N. bieti Oberth. 
N. bieti Oberth. (Vol. 10, p. 263 erroneously printed as “ biati ”) reminds one by its shape somewhat of H. bieti. 
jacobaeae, which in common with Hampson I hold to be a genuine Arctiid and not a Nyctemeriniid — Hampson 
gives the Genus name: Tyria Hbn. for same. Wing contour somewhat narrower than the latter. Fore wings 
black with greenish sheen, a yellow subapical spot of varying size and form and a yellow costal streak, which 
bends towards centre of outermargin and from there extends to anal angle. Hindwings orange-yellow in type 
with black cell spot and a black marginal band which is generally subdivided in two and which in some specimens 
encloses a yellow spot of the ground colour at the anal angle. Veins more or less densely black, occasionally 
so widely, that the entire hindwing is black. Body black with carmine red collar and anal segment and yellow 
lateral stripes on the glossy green abdomen. — sulphurea Oberth. have pale yellow hindwings. — albescens Oberth. sulphurea. 
have whitish hindwings. From Ta-tsien-lu and Omi-hsien. 
N. poultoni Oberth. has veins 3 and 4 of hindwings without stalks. Larger than the previous species, poultoni. 
markings however similarly situate. Forewings black with faint green sheen, especially on the slightly paler 
veins and folds. Hindwings with irregularly placed black spots like A. caja. Szechuan, Kwang-hsien.
