P. pseudorepanda sp. n. (15 k). Very similar to the indian repanda (Vol. 10, p. 696, pi. 90 e), differing V» eudo ^ d(i 
by the violet-brown basal spot of forewings, which does not decrease in size towards margin, but is widely 
truncate and incurved above vein 12. The subterminal silvery line is parallel to the margin whilst in repanda 
it converges with the margin towards the inner angle. Therefore in this new species the marginal area is 
uniformly wide and also uniformly dusted with silvery scales. In the centre it is divided into two equal 
parts by a darker transverse line. Thorax with a wide violet brown longitudinal band on upperside. On 
underside of forewings the green area is extinct. Wing expanse 40—45 mm. <J and V types from Siao-lu 
in the State Museum at Berlin, paratype from N. W. of Cheng-tu in the Museum at I ring. 
P. bicolor Wkr. This species which is common in S. China is described in Vol. 10, p. 696, pi. 87 a. bicolor. 
It has unicoloured green forewings and thorax, which are sometimes peppered with brown whilst hindwings 
and abdomen are brown. It penetrates into palaearctic territory at Ta-tsien-lu. 
P. prasina Alph. (15 k). This differs from the preceding species by a small brown basal spot on prasina. 
forewings, green abdomen and hindwings. Ta-tsien-lu. 
P. canangae Her. Described and illustrated in Vol. 10, p. 695, pi. 86 k. Body brown, collar and tegulae canangae. 
green. Forewings green, costa finely brown, basal spot violet-brown covering half the cell on costa. Marginal 
area very widely violet-brown, edged towards the base by darker lines which are indented twice. Hindwings 
brown. Wings of shorter and less rounded. Wing expanse 18 to 30 mm. India extending to Ta-tsien-lu m 
palaearctic region. — In India the larvae feed on Cananga oderata. 
P. inexpectata Stgr. (Vol. 2, p. 346) (15 k). We are giving an illustration of this species which is dealt 
with in Vol. 2, p. 346. The specimen is from Syria. 
13a. Genus: Limaeolasia Her. 
Distinguished by the reduction of the bristle of the clasp. Antennae of the d with long bipectin¬ 
ations in basal half. Palpi hairy, short, concealed, hind tibiae with stunted terminal spurs. In forewings 
vein 2 arises somewhat before centre of cell, 7 and 8 + 9 on a common stalk, anterior part of cell pressed 
to the costa. In hindwings vein 8 bent forward at the extreme base, then anastomosing with the upper

L. dubiosa Her. Described and illustrated in Vol. 10, p. 698, pi. 87 c. Dull red-brown, wings thinly dubiosa. 
scaled, veins darker. Rarely there is an indistinct transverse band over the close of cell. Y\ ing expanse 
18 mm. In South China in some localities it is very common, occurring on palaearctic territory at Ta-tsien-lu. 
14a. Genus: CoB«t!»eyl<»!«l4?s Mats. 
Structurally resembling Contheyla (Vol. 10, p. 708), forewings more elongate, margin from apex to 
vein 6 almost vertical to costa. In hindwings veins 6 and 7 widely separate. 
C. bomnensis Mats. Forewings reddish yellow to brown, darkened with blackish at costa. In marginal boninensis. 
area rather more greyish with a blackish transverse line that is forked on inner margin. Similar lines in 
centre, also post and antemedian. Costa with a few black dots at apex. A yellow-brown spot at close ol 
cell. Hindwings buff with blackish marginal dots. Wing expanse 34 mm. Bonin Islands. (I have not seen 
a specimen of this species.). 
14b. Genus: Trieliog-.yia- Hmps 
8—10 on a stalk, 7 separated 
cens. 
Compare Vol. 10, p. 700. Antennae of simple. In forewing veins 
therefrom. In hindwings 3 -j - 4 on a stalk, 6 and 7 separate. 
T. bmnnescens sp. n. (15 1). In hindwings vein 3 + 4 arise from a single point. Forewings dullbrown. brunnes- 
a grey-brown spot at i/ 3 rd of inner margin. Disco-cellular outlined by a delicate dark crescent Beyond 
same a dark brown transverse band that is curved outwards; it is interrupted below vein - and extern s 
from there only as a wide line to inner margin. Fringes with ochreous basal line and dark spots. Hindwings 
somewhat paler. Fringes as in forewings, darker at anal angle. Underside of forewings grey-brov n, of urn - 
wings dull pale buff. Body grey-brown. Wing expanse 17 mm. type from Omei-shan m June, July at 
an altitude of 1200 m. Type in the British Museum. 
T circulifera sp n (15 i). Body and forewings brownish buff. Forewings with a brown crescent mark drcuUjera. 
on disco-cellular, which mark extends in 2 arcs to of inner margin, where it expands to a heavy spok 
In discal area before the apex there is an almost circular olive-grey spot from which a dark zigzag hire vith h 
edge extends to the inner margin. Traces of a paler and darker line are sometimes visi > e piocett mg 
the marginal edge of the circular spot to anal angle. Hindwings somewhat angulated at 1 c, dark 
yellowish buff fringes. Underside brownish buff, costa of forewings duskily greyish hindwings pale oclneous. 
Wing expanse 23 mm. type from Kwanhsien, China in August. Type m the British Museum.
