Zamarada ignicosta hamulata subsp. n. 



(Text-figs 267, 268; Map 4) 



Externally closely similar to subsp. pyrilampes; distinguished in the male genitalia by the 

 equal length of the arms of the bifurcate valve and by the hook-like apex of the aedeagus. 

 The genitalia of the female appear to be identical with those of the nominate subspecies and 

 of subsp. pyrilampes.

The SCINTILLANS-Qrovp 



The male genitalia are characterized by the form of the short uncus, the sides 

 of which are produced in lobe-like form and extend either ventrally or posteriorly, 

 and the dorsal surface of which is setose basad; by the form of the valves, each of 

 which bears a dense, transverse tuft of long setae on the dorsal surface. Aedeagus 

 slightly spiral in form. Fulcrum longer than aedeagus, arcuate and either scobinate 

 or spined at apex. Vesica without cornutus. 



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



Key to Species 



1 Apex of left valve rounded and smooth. Apex of fulcrum tapered and tipped 



with one or two stout spines ..... scintillans (p. 162) 



- Apex of left valve tapered and scobinate. Apex of fulcrum densely and finely 



scobinate or with serrate margin ....... 2 



2 (1) Base of dorsal margin of valve rounded; dorsal process grossly dilate and 



setose in basal half. Fulcrum dilate apicad with serrate margin

— Base of dorsal margin of valve with tapered, setose projection; dorsal process 



weakly dilate and setose in basal half. Fulcrum of even width to rounded 

 apex, densely and minutely scobinate apicad . . gracilata (p. 166)
