numerous oblique transverse fuscous streaks alternating with groups of 
oblique lines, running horizontally along upper third of disc, undulate, 
edged with pale tawny-whitish, separated by narrow undulate lilac lines 
of ground colour; a more distinct streak from 1 / 4 of costa, another streak 
beyond this; third streak beginning with an oblique wedge-shaped fuscous 
mark before middle of costa with two tawny-whitish points on costal edge, 
continued below by a fuscous-tawny streak marked with longitudinal 
blackish-fuscous lines, running to upper angle of cell, strongly curved and 
dilated thence, to termen above tomus; a tawny -fuscous broader streak 
from beyond this streak to termen below apex; three oblique longitudinal 
dark brown marks alternating with minute dark brown strigulae originating 
from beyond preceding streak and running to before apex, continued 
below by fuscous-tawny streaks merging in preceding streak; a vertical 
larger dark brown mark in apex; numerous horizontal dark fuscous lines 
more or less edged with pale tawny-whitish in disc and along edges of cell, 
to closing vein, thence more or less following veins to termen, partially 
separated by lilac streaks; a transverse streak of blackish -fuscous irroration 
over closing vein, edging a small white tuft of slightly raised scales in its 
middle; a subtriangular dark fuscous suffused patch on dorsum before 
tomus, reaching 1 / 3 across wing, slightly streaked with blackish, edged 
anteriorly by a pair of oblique tawny-whitish lines; dorsum not streaked, 
tawny-fuscous irrorated with dark brown, suffused with blackish at base, 
mixed with ferruginous beyond base, edged above by a zig-zag pale streak; 
a moderate tawny suffusion above fold posteriorly and another transverse 
similar suffusion halfway between cell and termen ; termen with a curved 
vertical dark brown line in middle, whitish from this to apex. Cilia pale 
tawny, paler towards apex, with suffused blackish-fuscous bars opposite 
middle of termen and dorsum ; an interrupted suffused dark fuscous ante- 
median fascia. Hind wing dark bronze-fuscous, somewhat paler towards 
base; a large dense brush of dark fuscous hairs mixed with pale tawny on 
veins la and lb; a pecten of long ochreous-whitish scales below cell and 
vein 3 from halfway veins 2 and 3 to before termen. Cilia pale greyish- 
whitish, basal third dark fuscous with a pale basal line; in tornus cilia 
modified, short and dense, glossy ochreous-whitish. 
Tegumen triangular, erect, scaled. Uncus with a moderate projection 
densely bristled below apex ventrally. Socius short, flattened, appressed. 
Tegumen, a weak transverse band. Valva with a bristled narrowed 
cucullus, with base angularly projecting below, from this point originates 
a pencil of long pending bristles; saeculus rather weak, ending in a round 
patch of dense bristles. Aedoeagus short, bulbate. Anellus strong (Slide 
No. 810 D, type). 
Moss Forest Camp, five km northeast of Lake Habbema, 2800 m, 
October 15, 1938. One specimen. Very closely allied to A. paragramma 
Meybick, from Java, distinct by the presence of the pale pecten in hind 
wing.
