which are. labelled as from. Loko, which are plainly referable to 
this species, which is doubtfully distinct from A. ploetzi, Mab. 
(leucopygus, Ploetz). The specimens are smaller im size than is 
usual in the case of the female of A. ploetzi, Mab., and the outer 
angle of the primaries on the lower side is lighter. The white 
spots on intervals two and three in the primaries are very large 
and distinct, more so than in females of A. ploetzi, observed by 
me. Still this may be only a local variety of A. ploetz.
