REVISION OF GENUS ZAMARADA 225 



Zamarada herbuloti sp. n. 



(Text-figs 382, 383; PI. 79, figs 769, 770; PI. 119, fig. 1072) 



£ 9 (PI- IJ 9> &&■ io 7 2 )- Hyaline area of wings white; costa of fore wing and posterior 

 margin of hind wing buff, irrorate with dark grey; discal spots rarely present, then black and 

 minute. Non-hyaline terminal area of wings brown (pi. 6, E6— E7) ; subterminal fascia dark 

 brown (pi. 6, F6) to black, ill-defined and parallel with straight distal margin of hyaline area 

 on fore wing, strongly marked and dentate between costa and vein M 3 and weakly marked 

 at posterior margin on hind wing; subterminal fascia finely edged distally with glossy buff 

 between costa and vein M[ on each wing; cilia brown. Underside of non-hyaline terminal 

 area uniformly greyish brown. 



<J genitalia (Text-figs 382, 383). Distinguished from other species in the atirolineata-group 

 by the form of the uncus, tapered to a point, by the symmetrical, scoop-like ventral plate 

 of the gnathus and by the form of the fulcrum with its simple, non-dilate apex. 



9 genitalia (PI. 79, figs 769, 770). Distinguished by the form of the sterigma, which is 

 turned through 45 degrees instead of through 90 degrees, as in clio and aurolineata; the 

 operculum is covered by a digitate projection extending anteriorly from the lamella post- 

 vaginalis. 



Measurements. Fore wing: (JO. 15-16 mm. Antennal pectinations: g 7 X , $ 2 X diameter 

 of shaft. 



Colour and wing-pattern are diagnostic. 



It is with pleasure that I name this handsome species in honour of Monsieur 

 C. Herbulot, in token acknowledgement of his kindness in placing at my disposal 

 material from his own collection and material that he borrowed for me from other 

 collections in Europe.

The PE RLE PI DATA-Group 



Characterized in the male genitalia by the form of the asymmetrical valves and 

 the aedeagus. Apices of dorsal and ventral margins of valves produced in digitate 

 or acicular form. Dorsal process of valve often broadened apicad, then finely 

 tapered; a digitate, setose projection near base. Aedeagus with a lobe-like 

 extension from base and a finely tapered apex; apical half strongly sclerotized 

 along one side, sclerotized margin minutely serrate in part. Vesica occasionally 

 with a small, scobinate cornutus. Uncus short and tapered; dorsal surface 

 clothed with stout setae or spines. Ventral plate of gnathus developed, usually 

 slender and scobinate.
