recurved. The palpi are short, with the first and second joints 
densely clothed with hairs, the third joint minute and almost 
concealed by the vestiture of the second joint. The tibiz are 
clothed with long hairs, and those of the hind legs are armed with

donble terminal spurs. The anterior wings are subtriangular, with 
the inner and outer margins subequal and straight. The costa is 
evenly rounded, the apex is acute. The cell of the primaries is a 
little less than two-thirds the length of the costa, with the upper 
angle acute and the lower angle obtuse. Vein 12 reaches the costa 
before the end of the cell; vein 5 is slightly nearer vein 4 than 
vein 6; veins 6, 7, and 8 rise from about the upper angle of the 
cell; vein 3 is twice as far from vein 2 as from vein 4; vein 2 is 
equidistant between the base and vein 3. The secondaries have the 
costa relatively straight. The outer margin is evenly rounded to the 
extremity of vein 16, at which the wing is produced somewhat 
sharply. The inner margin is gently rounded and somewhat 
excavated before the base. The cell is less than half the distance 
from the base to the outer margin. Vein 5 is distinct. Vein 2 
arises beyond the middle of the lower margin of the cell, vein 3 a 
little before its end. Vein 7 arises from well before the end of 
the cell, and vein 38 twice as far from vein 7 as from the base. 
Type A. holocausta, Mab. 
The two species referable to this genus are moderately large
