Zamarada subinterrupta Gaede 

 (Text-figs 157, 158; PL 33, figs 581, 582; PL 104, fig. 928) 



Zamarada subinterrupta Gaede, 1915 : 121, pi. 2, fig. 17. Holotype $, Nigeria (MHNU, 

 Berlin) [examined]. 



(J $ (PI. 104, fig. 928). Hyaline area of wings greyish yellow. Non-hyaline terminal third 

 of each wing in male brown; dentate subterminal fascia dark brown edged distally with 

 white, sharply marked. Non-hyaline terminal third of each wing in female brownish grey; 

 dentate subterminal fascia raw sienna. Underside of non-hyaline terminal area of each wing 

 brown in both sexes, apex of fore wing putty colour. 



In the male the hind tibia is dilate with a pencil of long hair-scales. 



<J genitalia (Text-figs 157, 158). Apical three-fourths of dorsal margin of valve weakly 

 but densely scobinate; dorsal process dilate and setose at one-third; hair-scales of coremata 

 black. Aedeagus with a small, thorn-like projection at two-thirds. Fulcrum longer than 

 aedeagus with two asymmetrical, tapered projections at one-half; apical half spatulate with 

 rounded apex. Vesica without cornutus. 



$ genitalia (PI. 33, figs 581, 582). Slender, arcuate band of sterigma minutely serrate- 

 edged posteriorly in example illustrated; the margin is smooth-edged in some examples. 



Measurements. Fore wing: <J 14 mm; $ 13-14 mm. Antennal pectinations: q* 10 x, 

 $ 4 X diameter of shaft. 



Closely similar externally to protrusa Warren; distinguished by the less regular 

 outline of the hyaline intrusions into the patterned terminal area and in the male 

 by the presence of a dilate hind tibia with a pencil of long hair-scales. In the 

 male genitalia the scobinate dorsal margin of the valve and the form of the fulcrum 

 and in the female the arcuate sterigma are diagnostic. 



Distribution. Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Zaire. 



Material examined.
