Het. pt. ii. p. 20, pl. xxvi. figs. 6 & 7. QUona spectabilis, Butl. op. cit. p. 19, pl. xxvii. fig. 3. I took this species in all kinds of forms at Nagasaki and Shimonoseki. 2 03ona dolosa, Butl., in national collection at South Kensington, is referable to this species. Yokohama, Oiwake (Pryer): Tokio, Shanghai, North China. 231. ODONESTIS L.ETA. Amydona laeta, Walk. Cat. Lep. Het. vi. p. 1416 (1855). One specimen at Tsuruga, July 1886, which I believe to be the only one from Japan. Tsuruga (Leech); Corea (Herz). 232. ODONESTIS POTATORIA. Phalcena-Bombyx potatoria, Linn. Syst. Nat. xii. p. 813. Odonestis albomaculata, Brem. Bull. del'Acad. Pet. 1861, torn, Lep. Ost-Sib. p. 42, tab. iv. 6 8, t. iii. 20 2 • Var. askoldensis, Oberth. Et. Ent. v. p. 38. In the series of this species from Japan there are specimens which agree exactly with typical potatoria, Linn., and others which are most certainly identical with O. albomaculata, Brem., whilst between these two forms are aberrations, including a dark one near the variety askoldensis of Oberthiir, which cannot be satisfactorily referred to either form ; these serve as connecting-links and I think prove the identity of O. potatoria and O. albomaculata. Yokohama (Pryer); Hakone, Gensan (Leech) ; Corea (Hers). 233. TRABALA CRISTATA. Trabala cristata, Butl. Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (4) xx. p. 480 (1877); 111. Typ. Lep. Het. pt. ii. p. 18, pl. xxvii. fig. 1 (1878). Seven specimens, including five from coll. Pryer. Yokohama (Jonas and Pryer); Nagahama (Leeeh). 234. GASTROPACHA ILICIFOLIA. Phalcena-Bombyx ilicifolia, Linn. Faun. Suec. p. 293 • Syst Nat. xii. p. 813. J Var. JAPONICA. One male and two females, coll. Pryer. The Japanese form of G. ilicifolia differs from the European type in size and colour. It expands 56 millim. and is pale reddish brown, with all the violet-tinged white markings well defined; there is', however, no character by which it may be specifically separated from G. ilicifolia, therefore I propose for it the varietal name japonica. Yesso (Pryer). |
