Abstract
The object of this paper was to clarify the confusion that has existed for many years in the nomenclature and taxonomy of moths of the Genus Adoxophyes in Japan. The genera involved privatana, congruana, fasdculana and fasciata, and of these the first is known to the important pest of green-tea, and the second is known to the important pest of apple. But, result of revision, this four species does not seen necessary to separate generically. I believe I can now correctly identify this four species as a synonym of orana (F.R.).
