The sexes in this genus differ so much that it would not greatly 
surprise me to discover that the following form was the female of 
A. bistiymigera: at the same time, as Sir George Hampson points 
out, the pattern is so dissimilar that it would be absurd to put the 
two together without trustworthy proof of their identity: then 
again it is just as likely that A. ochraceata (which we have received 
from Zomba) may be the female of this species, inasmuch as it often 
has two spots at the end of the cell of primaries, though in other 
respects it is utterly dissimilar.

2. Upper surface tawny orange with broad smoky brown outer 
borders, that of the primaries occupying the apical third of the 
wing and crossed by blackish veins (which colouring commences on 
the orange area); border of secondaries abruptly narrowed towards 
anal angle; fringes sericeous, dark grey; a conspicuous black spot 
at the end of each discoidal cell; primaries with narrow dusky 
costal margin, three small black spots across the base; antenne 
and third joint of palpi black ; abdomen paler than thorax, golden 
ochreous with a dorsal series of black spots: wings below nearly 
as above, no subbasal spots on the primaries: body below bright

3. Primaries semitransparent cream-coloured, the basal third 
smoky brown, bisinuated in front; costa to end of cell the same 
colour confluent with a constricted Y-shaped bar which crosses 
the end of the cell; an oblique zigzag smoky-brown line. incurved 
towards costa, across the disc; a marginal irregular patch of the 
same colour near apex, and a second at external angle, also an 
intermediate small triangular intermediate spot; veins, excepting 
from the end of the cell to the apex, partly brown and partly 
blackish ; and all the veins as they cross the zigzag line blackish : 
secondaries semitransparent pale golden ochreous, more opaque and 
more distinctly ochreous on abdominal two-fiftlis: body above 
tawny ochraceous, palest at the extremities, somewhat vinaceous on 
the thorax ; antennz and tips of palpal joints black: under surface 
of wings immaculate ; body cream-coloured, a few orange hairs on
