Zamarada aerata sp. n. 



(Text-figs 380, 381; PI. 118, fig. 1061) 



(J (PI. 118, fig. 1061). Hyaline area of wings dull yellow, irrorate with vinaceous grey and 

 edged distally with very fine, parallel fasciae of yellow, dark brown and silvery grey; hyaline 

 area copper-tinted in oblique light; costa of fore wing buff, striate with silvery grey; discal 

 spots black, that on hind wing minute. Non-hyaline terminal area brownish orange (pi. 6, C5), 

 shallowly excavate in lunulate form between veins M 3 and Cu lb , termen finely silvery grey; 

 dentate subterminal fascia brown (pi. 6, D7), darkened in anterior half of fore wing and edged 

 distally with glossy buff; cilia grey, paling to buff terminad, glossy. Underside of non-hyaline 

 terminal area greyish brown, that of hind wing brownish orange. 



(J genitalia (Text-figs 380, 381). Closely similar to those of clio and aurolineata, differing 

 in the very shallow medial excavation of the apical margin of the uncus.
