Zamarada triangularis Gaede 

 (Text-figs 405, 406; PL 121, figs 1081, 1082) 



Zamarada triangularis Gaede, 1915 : 120, pi. 2, fig. 16. Holotype $, Cameroun (MHNU, 

 Berlin) [examined] . 



£ (PI. 121, figs 1081, 1082). Hyaline area of wings weakly tinged with greyish yellow, 

 sparsely striate with grey in basal half of hind wing and in posterior basal half of fore wing 

 and finely edged distally with dark brown and silvery grey; discal spot on fore wing glossy 

 grey edged with dark brown, that on hind wing minute or absent. Non-hyaline terminal 

 area light brown (pi. 6, D5) sparsely striate with dark brown; dentate subterminal fascia 

 dark brown and finely edged distally with glossy grey, heavily marked on fore wing and anterior 

 of vein M 3 on hind wing; posterior of vein M 3 , subterminal fascia on hind wing slender and 

 broken and the area distad of it is buff irrorate with light brown; termen very finely dark brown; 

 cilia chequered grey and greyish yellow. Underside of non-hyaline terminal area uniformly 

 greyish brown. 



In the holotype the intrusion of the hyaline into the non-hyaline terminal area of the fore 

 wing is more extensive than in the other examples studied (PI. 121, fig. 1081). 



The hind tibia is dilate enclosing a dense tuft of long hair-scales three-fourths as long as 

 the tibia. 



^ genitalia (Text-figs 405, 406). Apex of uncus slender and tapered. Juxta weakly 

 sclerotized. Valves bifurcate; apical extension of ventral margin short and stout, two-thirds 

 as broad as long, and incurved towards uncus apicad, extension with short, longitudinal 

 ridge dorsally; dorsal process with triangular, setose projection near base. Aedeagus smooth 

 and blade-like. Vesica with two cornuti, each a scobinate area as long as width of aedeagus. 



§ unknown. 



Measurements. Fore wing: £ i6'5-i9'5 mm. Antennal pectinations: (J 7 X diameter of 

 shaft. 



Externally similar to the nominate subspecies of reflexaria, differing in its 

 slightly larger size and rather darker, more heavily patterned non-hyaline terminal 

 area of the fore wing. In the male genitalia the form of the bifurcate valve and 

 the presence of two scobinate cornuti on the vesica are diagnostic. 



Distribution. Ivory Coast, Cameroun, Gabon.
