finely bordered with light not angular on 6 but rounded. Beneath the dark wedge below the cell of the hindwing 
is indistinct. Bolivia. 
A. lapitha Drc. (140 f) is very much like pithala , but with a less red tint, and purple grey dusting towards 
the anal angle and margin; the fine light subterminal line is inwards hardly bordered with dark, being situate 
much nearer to the margin, much straighter and forming a very short fork between 6 and 7, in the angle of 
which there is a tiny dark dot; also on the hindwing the subterminal line is much nearer to the margin. Mexico 
to Colombia. 
A. kotzschi 7i. sp. (140f) is presumably the Brazilian representative of lapitha. Wings still more 
stretched, with an obliquer distal margin forming a slight angle on 5. The colouring is more loamy, not so pink; 
the marking otherwise very similar excepting the whitish subterminal line which is much obliquer and extends 
straight into the apex and does not bifurcate below the costal margin; behind it the marginal area is intensely 
darkened blackish-brown as far as into the apex, in lapitha the apex itself remains light. On the hindwing the 
fine light postmedian line is much more removed into the centre of the wing. Type: 1 $ from 8a. Catharina 
e coll. WEKNiCKE-Dresden. 
A. cirna Drc. (140 f) shows resemblances to the 3 last species; ground-colour light ash-grey, at the costal 
margin much lighter, at the inner margin tinted ochreous, the basal inner-marginal spot large, pointed towards 
the base, outside rounded, here finely bordered with white, with 2 fine red-brown short lines behind it, the 
exterior line finely crenulate; the two transverse lines very fine and feeble, the exterior line angular on 5; at the 
cell-end a very fine dark dot, marginal area somewhat darkened. Hindwing monotonously ash-grey, at the 
lighter inner margin with 2 fine brownish-black angular streaks near the anal angle, the lower one being outside 
bordered with a purer white. Mexico. 
A. cerrita sp. n. {140 f) cannot be compared with any other species. Basal area light cinnamon-brownish, 
central area light chocolate, marginal area lighter and more yellowish than the basal area; from the first quarter 
of the costal margin a very thick oblique stripe extends to vein 2 and along it to the exterior transverse line; 
instead of the basal inner-marginal spot a very large irregularly roundish spot strewn with black and somewhat 
more distinctly bordered with black; before the double, finely dentate exterior transverse line, which begins 
close before the apex, 2 black oblique costal-marginal streaks, behind it between 6 and 7 two small hyaline 
spots; marginal area in the upper half dusted somewhat grey. Hindwing unicoloured light red-brown, at the 
inner margin two dark spots interrupted by light. Tegulae of the colour of the basal area, before their black 
margin with a black parallel line. Described after 2 ,$<$, type from Passa Quatro, Minas, Brazil, in the Coll. 
Zikan, co-type in the Senckenberg Museum at Frankfort on the Main. 
A. singularis Btlr. (140 g) is likewise a very peculiar species, originally described as a, Cfeometrid 
(Endropia). Light brownish, in the marginal area more whitish, at the costal margin at about equal distances 
4 narrow, small, black longitudinal spots; the basal inner-marginal spot as in paraguayana very long and thin, 
outside accompanied by a fine parallel line; the antemedian line is very irregular, forming a very wide bow, 
below the cell behind it a somewhat thicker spot; in the cell and behind it along vein 5 a dark longitudinal 
wedge to the margin; postmedian line angular on 5, above it indistinct, below it towards the margin concave, 
fine, a little dotted on the veins; the outermost costal-marginal spot is situate in a white arcuate line which 
belongs to the otherwise hardly visible subterminal line. Hindwing somewhat darker reddish-brown with a 
broad lighter median band on both sides bordered with a darker colour. Not mentioned where it was found. 
A. datanoides n. sp. (140 g) is a smalll species looking exactly like a small Datana] cinnamon red-brown 
with 3 darker transverse lines, the first on the median vein with a rounded angle, the second being postmedian, 
almost straight, thicker than the others, the third about 2 mm behind it somewhat concave towards the margin; 
fringe somewhat darker brown. Hindwing hardly lighter, without lines with darker fringe and the usual small 
inner-marginal spots. According to 2 males from Mexico (exact habitat not stated): type in the Berlin Museum. 
A. castanea Jo7ies I do not know, it may belong near to the preceding species. Body chestnut-brown, 
thorax suffused with purple, the basal abdominal segments with purple brown rings. Forewing chestnut with 
distinct dark feebly excurved antemedian and postmedian transverse lines; above 6 a small white subapical 
spot, and at the cross-vein a small dark dot. Hindwing chestnut, towards the base ochreous. Beneath on the 
chestnut forewing the basal half, excepting the costal margin, dusted with grey, the white subapical spot larger 
than above. Expanse of wings: 40 mm. Castro, Parana. 
A. erubescens sp. n. (141 a) is quite isolated. Forewing light reddish-yellow, strewn with red-brown, 
the most densely in the basal inner-marginal spot, in the median area as far as the subterminal line and before 
the margin, the space behind the subterminal line remaining purest yellowish; a curved antemedian line is 
very indistinctly traceable, the somewhat more distinct reddish-brown postmedian line extends from close 
behind the centre of the costal margin to shortly before the anal angle and it is slightly undulated outwards 
between the veins; the subterminal line distinctly borders on the dark median area, being obtusely angled 
on 5 from w here it runs in a straight line to the anal angle. Hindwing paler with a slightly darker median and
