slight bend in the outer edge. The hind wings are much as in A. vnsulsaria, 

 the outer edge being very straight. The palpi are long and slender, curved 

 up, and surpassing the front a little, being longer than usual. Body and

of thorax and costa of tore wings cream-white, forming a broad and con- 

 spicuous band. Fore wings with two slender, clear, white hair-lines; the 

 inner curved and remote from the outer, which is sinuous, being curved 

 outward on the median vein; a submarginal row of black faint scallops; a 

 marginal row of black points. Fringe concolorous with the wings. Hind 

 wings marked like the anterior pair, with a single clear, distinct, white line 

 beyond the middle; four equal, dusky, diffuse discal dots; beneath, flesh-

 No lines on the fore wings; a faint dusky shade beyond the middle of the 

 wing, while the black marginal dots are reproduced

Demopolis, Ala. (Grote). 



This remarkable species differs from any other of the genus by its 

 brick-red body and wings, contrasting with the thoracic and costal broad 

 conspicuous white band, and by the two fine distinct lines on the fore wings, 

 as well as the submarginal row of dusky triangles and the marginal row of 

 black dots.

2 <$ . — Fore wings rather short, much rounded on the apex; outer edge 

 moderately convex. Hind wings much rounded, not bent on the outer 

 edge, which is very convex; the inner edge regularly rounded, not square, as 

 usual. Body and wings cream-white, very finely dusted with brown, the 

 speckles finer than usual. Head black in front; palpi very short and small, 

 not reaching nearly as far as the front of the head, pale, concolorous with 

 the rest of the body. Fore wings with only two parallel, very fine, indis- 

 tinct, blackish, sharply-waved hair-lines, common to both wings, the outer 

 of the two lines situated on the outer fourth of the wing. No discal dots on 

 either pair of wings. Fringe on both wings cream-white, concolorous with 

 the wings; a pale ochreous slightly-scalloped line at the base of the fringe. 

 Wings semihyaline; fore wings a little dusky beneath, with diffuse linear
