Sorry, I know how to handle a Chinese dictionary but this would take me more than a day (maybe even two). Time I just don't have. Loepa?

Input of the Chinese symbols isn't a problem when support of the corresponding locale settings (IME, etc.) is installed in Windows 2000 or higher (or the Language Kit in MacOS), but one is supposed to know at least the basics of Chinese... It's much easier with Japanese, you can enter kana symbols and choose the correct substitute from a drop-down list (of course some patience and accuracy still needed...) |

Many thanks! Very interesting to compare with other descriptions. E.g., Front wings are light-brownish-ocherous to dark-brownish-red in the Russian litrerature.

I forgot that Cyrillic symbols look foreign enough for many, too... |
