A. conchis Grt. (9 f) is easily recognized by the light chestnut head and prothorax; the forewings concilia. 
are more purple reddish grey, scantily dusted with brown; in the black cell are the light chestnut maculae ringed 
in yellowish; the undulate line is distally bordered with a light grey. Hindwing yellowish-white, at the margin 
brownish. Colorado, New Mexico. 
A. normarjiana Grt. {= obtusa Spr.) (9 f) is a larger, light yellowish greyish-brown species with double normania- 
transverse lines filled up with light, an undulate median shade and the cell being filled up with dark brown na ‘ 
before and between the maculae; behind the postmedian line there is often a row of black dots on the veins; 
the light undulate line is proximally somewhat darker with 2 black subcostal sagittae. Hindwing yellowish- 
brown. From Canada down to New York. 
A„ ditrapezsum Schiff. (= tristigma Tr.) (Vol. Ill, t. 9 i) is likewise widely distributed in the palearctic ditrapc- 
region and has been dealt with in Vol. Ill, on p. 44. In America it only occurs in Labrador. =uu “ 
A. baja F. (— smithi Snell.) (9 f). This species being otherwise palearctic (vol. Ill, p. 44) occurs baja. 
in Canada and the United States as far as New York in a hardly different form. 
A. tenuicula Morr. is light greyish-brown, dusted reddish, with anterior double and posterior single tenuicula. 
transverse stripes; the two upper maculae are pupilled brownish, in light rings, and incompletely surrounded 
with black, between them an indistinct, undulate median shade extends to the proximal margin; the undulate 
line is situate near the distal margin, it is proximally tinted somewhat darker, at the costal margin with 2 black 
sagittae. Hindwing grey. New York. 
A. acaniea Sm. Head and thorax deep purple brown with contrasting flesh-coloured shoulder-covers, acamea. 
Forewing blackish-brown, with a purple reflection, in the costal part of the discal area lighter reddish, parti¬ 
cularly in the reniform macula; transverse lines double, filled up with a lighter reddish, the inverted lines blacker; 
the maculae are large, surrounded with blackish, the ground between them somewhat darkened. Hindwing 
yellowish-grey with somewhat lighter fringes. Expanse of wings: 39 mm. Canada. Alberta. 
A. bolteri Sm. (9h) is reddish-brown, tinted violet with ferruginous and black markings; both the bolteri. 
anterior transverse lines are double, filled up with yellowish, the space between them dusted with brown in 
the proximal-marginal half, with a black transverse streak proximally scaled yellow in the cell; the posterior 
transverse line is also double, filled up with yellow; coniform macula large and broad, proximally brown, in a 
yellow ring and surrounded with black, and the two upper maculae, particularly the reniform macula, are 
likewise very large, in the brown centre besides with a white crescentiform streak; undulate line yellow, proxi- 
mally shaded with a very dark tint. Hindwing smoky-grey with white fringes. Described from New Mexico. 
A. plecta L. (= vicaria Wkr.) (9f) is distributed in the palearctic region as well as in Cape Colony, plecta. 
and has been described and figured in Vol. Ill, on p. 44, table 9 k. Found from Canada to Texas. 
A. timbor Dyar (9h) is a magnificent species from Mexico; purple black with a reddish-ochreous timbor. 
costal margin and lead-coloured upper maculae; the single, black transverse lines are almost entirely absent, 
but the undulate line is marked by some grey scales; head and basal half of collar reddish-ochreous like the 
costal-marginal streak. Hindwing light grey with salmon-coloured fringes. Mexico (Zacualpan). 
A. vibora Dogn. (9 f) looks very much like plecta from which it differs by the white-striped median vibora. 
and by the entire absence of the posterior transverse line. Hindwing diaphanous white, at the costal and distal 
margins dusted with brown. Ecuador (Loja). 
A. mizteca Sells. (9 f) is larger, purple brown with a yellowish-white costal-marginal stripe and a black mizteca. 
basal stripe below the cell; both the transverse lines are double, the maculae not lighter than the ground, at 
most surrounded with some whitish scales, the cell before, between and above them filled up with black. 
Undulate line traceable by small grey spots being bordered with black towards the base, particularly towards 
the costal margin. Hindwing white, towards the margin and on the veins brownish. Described from Mexico 
(Jaiapa). 
A, plectiisa Maass. (9 g) is brown with a yellow collar bordered with a dark brown; forewing with plectina. 
a yellowisli-white costal-marginal stripe, a black basal ray, and white maculae surrounded with black, the 
ring-macula flowing together with the costal margin, the ceil between black, also behind the reniform macula; 
median shade only traceable, posterior transverse line double, dentate; undulate line proximally shaded with 
dark, at the costal margin the darkest. Hindwing of a pure white. Ecuador, Colombia. 
A. lmanabilis sp. n. (13 f) is allied to plectina, but it has a different, more smoke-grey colour of the manabilis. 
forewing with a reddish reflection and a but slightly contrasting costal margin which also comprises the basal 
area of the cell and basally also a part below it; no trace whatever of the transverse lines; subbasally, below 
the cell, a large, deep blackish-brown spot being continued into the distal two thirds of the cell, only interrupted 
by the large, reddish-grey, immarked maculae terminating above open into the similarly coloured costal-marginal 
area. Behind the reniform macula there is besides dark dusting which is continued towards the apex and ter¬ 
minates subapically into a large, dark triangular spot. Hindwing diaphanous whitish with a dark brownish
