ERRATA

A number

Larentiinae in Part 10, and also some comments are made on material that came to
hand when the text was virtually complete. The following are typographical
errors:

The Phthonoloba
species taken by Herbulot is illustrated in Plate 8 and Fig 312 of this
volume. More material is needed to enable it to be described.

As
stated, M. Herbulot has in his collection single males of Eupithecia delozona
Prout and Celaenaclystis telygeta Prout both from 1200m at Kundasang
on the south of G. Kinabalu. The genitalia of these are illustrated in Figs 316
and 313. Those of E. delozona confirm close relationships to the
Himalayan E. biviridata Warren, with only minor differences evident in
the curvature of the valve margin, the apex being more rounded in delozona. Those
of telygeta are much less strongly modified than in the type species, C.
celaenacris
Prout, but have a comparable, broad, square saccus.
There are homologies also in the structure of the uncus/tegumen complex that
support the congeneric status of the two species.

A
synonym of Eupithystis infuscata Warren was not listed. It is Tephroclystia
foedatipennis Warren (1901, Novit. zool. 8: 32)

Sauris usta ab. stictifascia Prout
|
Sauris usta ab. stictifascia
(Colln Herbulot)
|
A strongly marked female of this form of the variable S. usta Prout
was taken on the slopes of G. Kinabalu (Colln Herbulot). The forewing fasciation
is more grey-green than in typical specimens, with a strongly blackened medial
band. The male genitalia are as in usta.

Diagnosis. The wings are fasciated greenish-grey on pale grey as illustrated. The
strong antemedial of the forewing and the rather dentate central part of the
hindwing postmedial are distinctive.
Taxonomic notes. The slender valves, well-developed saccus, single cornutus of the
aedeagus in the male genitalia of this species and its close Australian
relative, G. bryodes Turner comb. n., suggest placement in Gymnoscelis.
G. fragilis Warren comb n. (New Guinea) has the same facies type and is also
probably related.
Geographical range. Sri Lanka, India, Hong Kong, Peninsular
Malaysia, Borneo, Java, and possibly the Philippines and Sulawesi (not
dissected).
Habitat preference. The only Bornean specimen is a female in Colln
Herbulot from Kundasang at 1200m on the southern slopes of G. Kinabalu.
Part 11
Platycerota percrinita Prout was consistently misspelt percrinata (pp.
81, 283, 304).
Yazaki (1994, Moths of Nepal 3: 23) placed Pogonopygia xanthura Prout
as a synonym of P. pavida Bastelberger (Himalaya, Taiwan, Japan).
