280 OCNOGYNA; CHELIS; PARA SEMI A; MICRARCTIA; SPILARCTIA; ESTIGMENE. By Dr. M. Dratjdt. 
In regard to the biology of C. romeii Sagarra the following fresh particulars can now be given. The 
imagines emerge in September. Soon after the ova have been deposited, the small larvae emerge and feed 
up on Poa annua. The larvae go on feeding throughout the winter until April, they then rest in a fully fed 
and quiescent state until August, when they again become active and spin up. (Schreiber, Meenicke). 
40. Genus: Oeiiogyms Led. 
Vol. 2, p. 78, line 15 from top. After bellieri-banghaasi should be added: 
O. banghaasi — f. sordida Igel is uniformly suffused with grey-brown, so that the 3 whitish transverse 
stripes are obscured. Jenitze (the southernmost station of the anatolian railway). Captured at the beginning 
of April. 
Vol. 2, p. 78 and also p. 74 of this Supplement, read: 
41. Genus: Oielis Mr. 
instead of Cletis, which was an error. 
46. Genus : Parasemia Hbn. 
p. 77, line 5 from top: 
P. plantaginis L. — To be added to interrupt, a Schaw. is the reference to plate 6 g as “bosniensis” ; the 
name bosniensis was printed on the plate in error, the specimens sent for illustration having been erroneously 
marked with this name and the correction was not made in time. There is no “bosniensis”. 
49. Genus : Ulicrarctia Sz. 
nehulosa. p. 79, line 2 from top. M. glaphyra Ev.\ — nebulosa Reich has dull white wings, finely dusted with 
black and with obscure, diffuse markings. Marginal band of hindwings complete. It occurs in the Rohtang 
Pass, Kangra, N. India at an altitude of 4053 m. 
lochmaiteri. M. lochmattcri Reich seems to stand about halfway between JH. glaphyra, gratiosa ab. jlava and Phrag- 
matobia wagneri Pglr. Forewings deep brown with roundish black spots in centre and at end of cell, in 
centre ol inner margin and at outer margin at apex and at anal angle. The reduced central band only extends 
as far as the white submedian nervure, also the outer band is much reduced and sharply angulated. All 
the light markings are obscured by blackish dust. Hindwings pale yellowish with a discal spot and a conti¬ 
nuous marginal band of 2 mm width. Body dorsally black, laterally and ventrally yellow. Palpi black with 
orange-yellow tip. Wing expanse: 31 mm. It occurs at the Shyok valley, Karakorum at 4700 m altitude and 
is named after the Swiss guide Franz Lochmatter who lost his life in the Dutch Karakorum Exnedition. 
50. Genus: Spflarctia Btlr. 
nigrodorsa- p. 80, line 4 from below. S. nigrodorsata Reich reminds one of S. comma Wlcr. (Vol. 2, p. 86, pi. 15 d). 
Forewing creamy yellow with black band arising at apex and proceeding to inner margin; small striations 
above, thicker ones below and with a heavy black inner marginal streak that stops short just before base 
and inner angle; at base a black spot. The first third of costa has a black margin and from where this 
ceases an angulated band of spots extends, running finally parallel to the first band; at outer margin there 
aie ^ 4 black dots. Hindwings creamy yellow, transparent in disc, with a black dot at upper angle of 
cell and a second one near the margin on 2. radialis. Head and thorax pale yellow, similarly the first segments 
of abdomen, then rosy red with a heavy deep black dorsal stripe from head to tip of abdomen that is yellow¬ 
ish- Underside of abdomen yellowish white, with black spots laterally and sublaterally. From 1 $ from 
the northern slopes of the Kan Shan mountain range at an altitude of 2500 m. 
56a. Genus: Estigmeiic Hbn. 
This Genus should be classified after Greatonotus Hbn. (Vol. 2, p. 90). We also refer to what was written 
in Vol. 10, p. 253. 
perrotteti. E. perrotteti Guer. (Vol. 10, p. 253, pi. 24 d). A species that occurs in India proper. Forewings black 
vitli white longitudinal band and rose coloured hindwings with 3 black submarginal spots having yellow 
surrounds. According to information kindly supplied by Dr. Reich, Berlin, same occurs on Mount Kufri, Simla, 
Punjab, and therefore also probably penetrates into palaearctic territory. 
imbuici. E. imbuta 11 hr. (Vol. 10, p. 254, pi. 24 c). The same remarks apply to this species as to the preceding 
one. Its usual habitat is N. W. India and a form of same occurs at Sikkim. It is now also known to occur 
on Mount Kufri, Simla.
