strigulated towards inner margin with brownish-ochreous and 

 dark fuscous, and with a stronger oblique dark fuscous streak 

 from inner margin at one-fifth, reaching half across wing ; a 

 blackish line along basal third of costa, ending posteriorly in a 

 black spot ; remainder of wing ochreous-brown, irregularly 

 mixed with dark fuscous and blackish, and with a few whitish 

 scales ; costa strigulated with blackish-fuscous ; a very oblique 

 silvery-whitish indistinct line from beyond middle of costa in an 

 irregular curve to hindrnargin below middle, thence continued to 

 anal angle ; another similar line from costa a little before apex 

 to hindmargin below apex : cilia brownish-ochreous, towards 

 anal angle whitish-ochreous, irregularly barred with dark fuscous. 

 Hindwings whitish-yellow, hindmargin suffused or spotted with 

 gre}' ; cilia whitish-grey, with a darker grey basal line. 



$ . G"-7v>". Head, palpi, antennte, thorax, and abdomen 

 ochreous-brown. Legs whitish-ochreous, anterior and middle 

 tibitG and tarsi suffused above with dark fuscous. Forewings 

 broad, costa rather strongly arched, becoming straight towards 

 apex, hindmargin more oblique than in male ; light ochreous- 

 brown, costa and inner margin strigulated with dark fuscous ; a 

 very large dark fuscous or reddish-fuscous rounded-triangular 

 blotch, mixed with blackish, on posterior half of inner margin, 

 its apex nearly reaching costa beyond middle, its anterior edge 

 nearly straight, its posterior edge rounded, ending on hindmargin 

 just above anal angle ; a fuscous obliquely curved streak from 

 three-fourths of costa to middle of inner margin, irregularly 

 margined on both sides with silvery-metallic scales ; apex dark 

 fuscous : cilia dark reddish-fuscous or blackish-fuscous. Hind- 

 wings pale yellow, spotted with grey towards margins, apex and 

 hindmargin grey ; cilia grey. 



The sexes are at first sight very different in appearance, but 

 the markings are really nearly identical in position, the differences 

 being chiefly in intensity of colouring. Both sexes may be 

 separated from A. oxygrammana by the pale yellow hindwings.
