693 
small subterminal semihyaline black spots between veins 4 and 7. Hindwirigs brown; inner margin white with 
white cilia; the produced anal angle darker shaded. Wings below bone colour shaded with brown terminally. 
Forewings: the postmedial lines straighter, brown; the subterminal spots as above. Hind wings: some scattered 
black points; a black spot on discocellular; two brown outer lines, lunular dentate. Expanse: 30 mm. St. 
Jean, French Guiana. 
T. orion Dogn. Male: Body as in maoma. Forewing: basal third cinnamon buff followed by a vertical orion. 
mikado brown stripe edged with verona brown; a white point on discocellular. Wing beyond cinnamon buff 
shading to pinkish buff on terminal space from vein 5 to inner margin; postmedial line faintly inbent, double, 
lunular. Hindwing cinnamon, somewhat paler on base and termen; verona brown mottling on inner margin. 
Wings below pinkish buff; black points on discocellular. Fore wing: first postmedial line sayal brown, broad, 
the second line very fine; a subterminal fuscous spot between veins 5 and 6; cilia sayal brown. Hindwing: first 
line medial, inbent from vein 3 to inner margin; outer line fine, very faint. Expanse: 30 mm. French Guiana. 
Dognin’s co-type is the same as maoma. The two species are closely allied. 
T. praecipua Schs. (89 k). Male: Head and thorax violaceous brown. Abdomen reddish brown. Fore- praecipua 
wing brown, darkest at base, and shaded with lilacine below cell and vein 4; a buff spot on costa before middle, 
followed by a dark line, angled at end of cell, inwardly oblique to inner margin at one third from base, and 
followed by a reddish brown parallel line; a postmedial curved, finely dentate, reddish brown line, followed 
below vein 7 by a blackish lunular line; some buff on costa before apex, shaded below with reddish brown. 
Hindwings reddish brown. Underneath pale buff, with fine brown lines; a postmedial and subterminal line 
on forewings; a medial and a postmedial line on hindwings. Expanse: 26 mm. St. Jean, Maroni River, French 
Guiana. 
2. Subfamily: Zanolinae subf. nov. 
Vein 8 of forewing straight or concave towards costal margin. 
1. Genus: Apatclorfcs Pack. 
Palpi well developed, thickly haired, stout, erect and projecting beyond the broad frons, last joint 
very small, hidden. Antennae pectinate to the tips. Fore wing broad triangular, with a sharp, often almost 
falciform apex before which the costal margin is sometimes excavated, distal margin below it likewise with a 
low indenture, between 5 and 6 with a more or less distinct angle. Vein 2 behind the centre of the cell, 3 shortly 
before the lower angle, 4 from the latter, 5 from the centre of the cross-vein, 6 and 7 on a short stalk, 7—10 
close together from the same stalk, 11 from the cell. Hindwing broad, outside rounded or slightly angular, as 
long as or shorter than abdomen; 3 and 4 from the same place or separated, 6 and 7 on a rather long stalk, 
cross-vein rather oblique. Hind tibiae uncommonly broad, of an oval shape and very densely haired. Larva 
densely clad with long soft hairs, on the 2nd, 3rd and 10th rings with one long thin dorsal pencil each, between 
them shorter dorsal pencils. 
Type: A. torrefacta Abb. & 8m. 
A. torrefacta Abb. & 8m. (104 a). Greyish-brown, in the G in the costal half more light silvery or lor,-efac'd. 
violettish-grey, near the base of the inner margin with a large chestnut-brown spot, behind it 4 fine brownish 
transverse lines, the postmedian line bent around the cell, below it slightly incurved, subterminal line dentate, 
behind it a small subapical hyaline spot. Hindwing red-brown, at the inner margin whitish with small chestnut- 
brown spots and a fine light median line. Larva yellow, adult larva mostly with white or grey hair, pencils 
black, dorsal spots black, it lives on numerous foliage trees, preferably Prunus, willows, ash-trees etc. Widely 
distributed in the U.S.A. from New York to Texas and Florida. The form from Florida: - floridana H. Echo, floriduna 
has a redder ground-colour, weaker lines, a distinctly prominent whitish discal spot; under surface fox-coloured. 
A. adrastria Dec. (= diffidens H.-Edw.) (140 a). flight greyish-brown, more or less tinted yellowish adrastria. 
ochreous, lines much like those of torrefacta, from the first quarter of the costal margin a dark line extends 
towards the anal angle; the basal inner-marginal spot broadly parted by vein 1, red-brown with a bronze tint; 
a whitish discal spot rather distinct. Hindwing somewhat lighter, otherwise of the same tint. Mexico, Guatemala. 
— costaricensis /. n., from Costa-Rica, are greyer, smoother and glossier, lines more regular, not so strongly wavy, costaricen- 
sis.
