dark brown, similar to those of geryon. $ antennae with 9 joints before the tip grown together, heavier and 
robuster than in statices. The extremity of abdomen of the <$ when denuded of scales shows the wide truncate 
ends of the anal clasps in the genital aperture, having a very characteristic wide claw-like, long pointed, thorny 
prong bending inwards and situate at the lower edge. 9 antennae spindle-shaped towards the tip, serrated as 
geryon, scarcely perceptible with a magnifying glass and very difficult to differentiate from geryon 9- Pashtrik 
(Albania) in the 1st half of July. Illustration of the Cotypes from Naueocks Collection. 
c. Species with capitate antennae. 
P. mystrocera Pung. $ (1 c). Closest to capitalis (Vol. 2, plate 1 1) with narrow wings, densely scaled, 
hindwings much darker with similar knobbed extremities to antennae, although narrower and longer. Not 
identical with duskei. Fore wings lively green, not very shining, fringes black-grey, hindwings black. Under¬ 
side dark grey, hindwings with sparse green scales in the upper part of the cell. Palpi relatively thick, black. 
Head and thorax glossy green, abdomen black, legs partly with indication of green. Shakuh (North Persia). 
The type illustrated is from the Berlin Museum. 
6. Genus: Alloprocrls Her. 
The front tibiae without spurs, tongue strong and well developed, antennae of $ pectinated on both 
sides, only dentated at the tip. In the foiewings all nervures of the radius, media and cubitus are free of the 
cell, which itself is reduced at the base, as in Procris. Hindwings with complete number of veins. 
A. draesekei Her. (1 c). Body black with purple sheen, collar and base of tegulae red. Forewings black- 
brown, costal, outer and inner margins outlined by a narrow red line, all veins red. Fringes black, separated 
in the middle, behind that paler. Hindwings black-brown with red central area. On the underside the whole 
cell of forewings is red, otherwise as upperside, in the hindwings the red central area projects further distally, 
so that the black-brown outer margin is much narrower. - - Omei-shan near Kiating-fu and Sunpanting 
(in Szechuan). The specimens illustrated are from the Museum at Dresden. 
A. adusta Draes. (1 c). Similar to the previous species in shape and neuration, but without the large 
red discal spot of hindwings, which are quite black. Sometimes on the underside the costa of forewings a 
occasionally also the outer edge of the hindwing cell are faintly red. Ta-tsien-lu, Omei-shan (Szechuan). The 
type illustrated is from the Museum at Dresden. 
7. Genus: Pterusia Hope. 
E. aedea L. (Vol. 2, p. 10 , plate 2 c). Subsp. sugitanii Mats, is olive coloured on forewings with narrow 
white spots. Honshu, Japan at the end of August. 
E. culoti Oberth. (Vol. 2, p. 441, plate 56 k). $ with longish wings, ground colour of forewings bright 
yellow and hindwings orange yellow. On underside the black is almost entirely replaced by blue. Body is yellow 
underneath. Antennae are black, long and pectinated. Mu-pin, Tien-tsuen and Tay-tou-ho. 
E. dubernardi Oberth. (1 d) from Tse-kou is smaller and blacker almost without blue, otherwise very 
similar to culoti. Illustration according to Oberthur. 
E. lacreuzi Oberth. (Vol. 2, p. 441, plate 56 k). Ground colour of forewings is bright yellow, shoulder- 
blades and underside of abdomen being the same colour. The costa and outer margin of underside of hindwings 
white-grey. Tse-kou. 
E. moerens Oberth. (Vol. 2, p. 441, plate 56 i 9 ), the J is unknown. 
E. lydia Oberth. (1 d). With elongated forewings, cut off at apex almost perpendicularly. Ground colour 
of forewings olive-brown with bright yellow spots. Hindwings darker yellow. Underside of abdomen yellow- 
white with black belts. Shoulder blades yellow. Siao-Lu, Ta-tsien-Lu. The <$ illustrated was caught at Ta- 
tsien-Lu and is from the Museum at Tring. 
E. cecilia Oberth. ( 1 d). Upperside of all wings black without gloss and with a sort of fine whitish edging 
to the apex of forewings, which is more strongly developed on underside. Head and antennae, which are 
slightly pectinated in the are black. Collar reddish, body black on top and rose underneath. - Siao-Lu, Mu-pin, 
Ya-chow. The specimen illustrated is from the Museum at Tring. 
8. Genus: Psag»liis Wkr. 
In regard to the entire Indian Genera see Vol. 10, p. 29. 
P. rehfousi Oberth. (Vol. 2, p. 441, plate 56 k). Underside is about as the upperside illustrated. Underside 
of body straw-yellow. Siao-Lu. 
rehfousi.
