hindmargin to just across M and R 3 ; the rest vinaceous mixed with brown, an elongate discal lunule (on the 
forewing) and a sinuous postmedian line discernible. Underside whitish with broad fuscous costal and sub¬ 
terminal bands. Oetakwa River, Dutch New Guinea. 
A. desolata Warr. (4 d). Differs from all the foregoing in having the apical patch of the hindwing desolata. 
red (not blackish) and increased in size. The white markings are discernible, but less definite than in delectabilis 
(4 e). $ unknown. Biagi (type) and Snow Mountains (Upper Setekwa River). We figure the latter. 
A. eranna Prout (4 d, as errana) has the red spot smaller and lighter than in desolata , both wings with eranna. 
a central white subterminal spot. $ unknown. Mount Goliath. 
A. veniplaga. Coloration of as in eranna (4 d), or scarcely so bright. Apical patch of hindwing still 
larger and broader than in desolata (4 d); a small semicircular patch of the same colour at hindmargin of fore¬ 
wing distally; a triangular whitish costal mark at end of cell of forewing. $ with similar costal spot, both wings 
with broad terminal band, mixed with purple-brown, becoming narrow in the middle, widening again slightly 
behind. — veniplaga Warr., from the Owen Stanley Range, has in the <$ a small whitish subapical spot on the veniplaga.

Mountains, this spot is enlarged, apical. 
A. beatrix Prout (4e) differs from all the preceding in the much paler colour of the apical patch of the beatrix. 
hindwing; that of the forewing is nearly as in plena, but does not quite reach the termen. $ unknown. Mount 
Goliath (loc. typ.) and Weyland Mountains, Dutch New Guinea. 
A. extravagans Prout. <$. Pale patches coloured as in beatrix (4 e), but very much larger, that of the extrava- 
hindwing nearly reaching the base and abdominal margin. Pore wing with additional pale spots, placed as in jans. 
veniplaga. Weyland Mountains. 
A. sexniaculafa Warr., founded on 2 $$ from Biagi, has the pale apical spots larger than in beatrix (4 e), 
almost as large on fore- as on hindw'ing; additional spots at base of fore wing and anal angle of each wing. 
All the spots strongly edged with dark brown.

A. orbimaculata Warr <$. Combines the reddish-brown apical (hindwing) spot of the bijuscata- group orbimacu- 
with an intricate pattern of punctiform white lines which more recalls that of the flavilinea group. Owen Stanley 
Range and Wandammen Mountains. — niagnificata Prout (4 d, as orbimaculata), from Mount Goliath, has, magnifica- 
in addition, a well-developed white central subterminal patch.

A. nigrimaculata Warr. (4 d). Larger than orbimaculata, the markings extended. Easily recognized by nigri 
the white markings at basal half of hindwing posteriorly. Mountains of New Guinea. The $ of this rather com¬ 
mon species, as well as those of the preceding and following, is unrecognized and probably totally dissimilar 
to the <$. 
A. conimaculafa Warr. (= bijugata Warr.) (4 c) $. Smaller than nigrimaculata, rather duller green, commacu- 
the white spot more equally distributed, mostly fairly large, the red-brown apical spot of the hindwing minute lata " 
(lost in our figure); Ow T en Stanley Range. Also from Mount Goliath. 
A. stellata Warr. A little smaller than stellijera (4 c), the forewing with the white dots in the centre more stellata. 
minute, on the contrary with a conspicuous white subcostal spot at the end of the cell and one at mid-termen. 
$ similar above, both wings beneath with irregular blackish-fuscous subapical band. Biagi, British New Guinea. 
A. stellifera Prout (4 c, as stelligera). $ unknown, probably similar to than of stellata, which see for stellijera. 
the differentiation of the $<$. Underside similar to upper, though paler. Mount Goliath. 
A. pagenstecheri Semper (10 i) is unknown to me but appears, from the figure and description, to have pagenste- 
the fore wing similar to that of stellifera, only without enlarged subapical white spot, the hindwing with the chert. 
apical spot of ionias or absona, perhaps a little more solid. Eounded on a single <$ from Luzon. 
A. mimicaria Prout. Smaller than absona (28 mm), costal edge of forewing less darkened, all the white mimicaria. 
markings extended, the median (behind the large cell-spot) and postmedian of forewing band-like; apical spot 
of hindwing much reduced, about as in stellifera (4c). Dutch New Guinea: Mimika River. A $ from Mount 
Goliath shows the sexes to be similar. 
A. ionias sp. n. (10 d) S, 33 and 38 mm. Near absona, the antennal pectinations shorter, the teeth of 
the wing-margins rather less long, the green hair-like scaling denser. All the white markings smaller, the cell- 
spot of the forewing narrow (type) or almost obsolete, not fused with the antemedian costal dash; a slight 
purple-grey admixture in this spot, a stronger purple-grey suffusion between the postmedian and subterminal 
costal spots. Hindwing with the apical spot more purplish than in absona. Vulcan Island, November 1913 —
