marginal band, both being darkest at the inner margin. Beneath the hindwing is somewhat darker cinnamon 
brownish and besides a fine dark median line as on the forewing with a whitish submarginal line being inside 
bordered with a darker colour. Type a $ from Brazil in the Berlin Museum. 
A. paulista Jones is not before me, but it may belong to this group. Palpi red-brown; head and thorax paulisia. 
grey, abdomen yellowish-brown. Forewing grey, strewn with yellowish brown, with a light brown undulate 
antemedian band and a broader similar postmedian band the outer border of which is darker and undulately 
dentate; marginal area dusted with brown, fringe brown, at the cell-end a whitish spot. Hindwing yellowish- 
brown with indistinct median and postmedian lines and grey fringe. Beneath the forewing is yellowish-brown 
with faded brown median and postmedian lines, behind the latter a brown shadow. Hindwing similar, the 
postmedian line angular on 5; marginal area suffused with grey, a white discal spot. $ similar, darker. Expanse 
of wings: $ 47, $ 57 mm. South Eastern Brazil (S. Paulo). 
A. striata Drc. (140 f) is quite a different species. Body and forewing fawn, forewing with 6 angular lines striata. 
near the apex; at the apex a white spot and near the base of the inner margin a small black spot; fringe fawn. 
Hindwing fawn with lighter veins. Under surface light fawn, hindwing in the centre with 2 undulate light lines 
and at the apex with a large brown spot. Peru, La Union, Rio Huacamayo, from an altitude of 2000 m. 
A. corema Schs. (140 g) is light reddish-brown with undulate greyish-white antemedian and postmedian corema. 
transverse lines, between them a fine hlack discal dot; at the costal margin between the lines with 4 small 
whitish diffuse spots, the lower half of the median area dusted with greyish-white; between 4 and 6 two small 
submarginal hyaline spots, below them a rather straight subterminal line. Hindwing monotonously reddish 
brown. South-Eastern Brazil (S. Paulo), described after a 
A. paratinia Schs. (140 g) is very light yellowish grey, with hardly any transverse lines, only their paratima. 
beginnings at the costal and inner margins being indicated by small blackish-brown spots, in the disc a small 
central dot, subapically with the white subterminal fork in which there are two small black triangular spots. 
Hindwing somewhat darker and more reddish with a feeble whitish submarginal line on both sides shaded darker.

form; forewing tan-coloured yellow, strewn with olive brown, the basal inner-marginal spot much larger, the 
transverse lines more distinct, especially the curved postmedian line, and behind it a sharply crenulate fine 
dark subterminal line. Hindwing chestnut with a distinct whitish subterminal line. South-Eastern Brazil; 
Amazons (Tonantins). 
A. xanthapex sp. n. (141 a) is evidently very closely allied to the preceding species, but easily discernible xanthapex. 
by the golden yellow upper marginal half, below it the margin is smoked greyish-brown. Colour of the wings as 
in paratima, the basal inner-marginal spot much larger, extending to the base; the very fine transverse lines 
are blackish-brown, the antemedian line angular on the median vein, the postmedian line begins with a larger 
costal-marginal spot, bends round the fine discal dot and runs then finely crenulate towards the margin feebly 
concave to the inner margin. Subterminal line wavy, with fine black vein-streaks, terminating below the costal 
margin with a large white spot which sends a branch to the apex; in this fork a large blackish-brown triangular 
spot. Type: 1 <$ from Passa Quatro (Minas) in the Coll. Zikan. garleppi /. n. (141 a) I range here for the garleppi. 
present, it corresponds to the form liladna of the preceding species. Fore wing on the golden yellow ground 
densely strewn with brown, only the apex remains purely golden yellow though less extensively than in 
xanthapex', linear marking very indistinct in the densely strewn ground, the subapical black triangular spot 
is parted in two by a broad white vein. Hindwing chestnut with a fine white submarginal line. Type: 1 <$ from 
Huayabamba (Peru) in the Berlin Museum (Garlepp leg.) 
A. hierax Dogn. (141 a). Forewing grey, behind the base and at the costal margin lined with reddish- hierax. 
brown, the basal inner-marginal spot large; transverse lines indistinct, only their beginnings at the costal and 
inner margins are marked red-brown; 3 white subapical spots inside bordered with red-brown; subterminal 
line hardly more distinct than the other lines. Hindwing light red-brown, at the margin lined with grey, with 
a feeble lighter median line. Described after a <$ from Joinville (Brazil). 
A. anna Schs. (141 a). Fore wing violettish-grey, suffused with reddish-brown; anterior transverse anna. 
line feeble, somewhat dentate, rising from a small darker costal-marginal spot, the posterior line somewhat 
more distinct, often darkened like a band, slightly angular on 5, below it concave towards the margin; at the 
cell-end a black dot; 2 large subapical hyaline spots inside bordered with dark, below them a third though not 
hyaline, whitish patch; marginal area subapically darkened. Hindwing more reddish-brown. Guiana; Colombia. 
A. martia Or. (§ = bombycina Fldr.) (140 h). Like the following albipunctata the sexes of which martia. 
undoubtedly belong together, Cramers and Felders species also belong together. Fore wing of <$ purple grey, 
in the basal area, a median band and at the margin especially apically chestnut-red, between them wavy 
transverse lines and subapically a small white hyaline spot. Hindwing somewhat lighter red-brown. The $ 
— a specimen exactly fitting the 2 type of bombycina is before me — is almost quite the same as albipunctata -$,
