A. consorta Tempi, nec Wkr. (= inornata Wkr.) (Vol. II, pi. 56 g). Body and wings dark brown. The 
last rings of the stretched out abdomen are yellow. Larval sac relatively large, 35 mm long, 9 mm thick, spun 
with small remnants of plants. A 28 nun. Ceylon, Borneo. 
A. cuprea Mr. (90 h) is very similar, but smaller. The colour is more old copper brown. $ 20 mm. 
Calcutta, Tonkin. 
A. weyersi Heyl. Body and wings blackish-brown. Abdomen very long, legs yellow. Exactly like Ac. 
bipars Wkr., so that the author himself cancelled his species, but declared it to be valid again later on, owing 
to the different neuration. Veins 4 + 5 of forewing on a long stalk. It may be possible, of course, that it is 
in fact merely an aberration of the veins of bipars. 32 mm. Sumatra. * 
A. butleri Heyl. Body blackish-brown. Veins 4 + 5 of forewing on a short stalk, 7 and 8 + 9+10 
from the ripper cell-angle; forewing blackish-brown. Hindwing the same. $ 22 mm. Sumatra. 
(?) A. moorei Heyl. (= grotei Mr.). Separated from cuprea (90 h) by its small size, from butleri by 
its colour and neuration. Body greyish-brown. Wings coppery yellow, fringe with a coppery gloss. Forewing 
bent back at the apex, the inner margin and distal margin form almost a right angle. Veins 4 and 5 arise from 
the same base, 8 + 9 on a long stalk, arising with 7 from the same base. Veins 4 and 5 as well as 7 and 8 
arise from the same bases. $ 16 mm. Bangalore. 
A. albitarsia Hmps. The last tarsal joint is not so long as in the type. Veins 4 + 5 stalked in both 
wings. All is reddish-brown, only the anterior tarsi whitish. $ 20 mm. Ceylon. 
A. snelleni Heyl. (90 k). Body and wings brownish ochreous. Forewing with a pointed apex, distal 
margin straight, somewhat more oblique than in consorta. A blackish-brown streak at the cross-vein. Veins 
8 + 9 on a long stalk, vein 7 distinctly separated or also yet a little stalked with 8 + 9, veins 4 and 5 arise 
from the same base or separately. The distance of veins 3, 4 and 5 of the hindwing is very variable. The 
sac is 30 mm long, 5 mm thick. $ 22—25 mm. Assam, Kina Balu. Most probably identical with A. leonina 
Tams from Bangkok. 
A. vaulogeri Heyl. (90 h). Body and wings yellowish-brown, the latter somewhat darker. Fringe of 
forewing brown. A 30 mm. Tonkin. Described by the author as a species of Clania , according to Tams it be¬ 
longs to this genus. The smooth sac is 35—40 mm long, 7 mm thick. 
21. Genus: Oaniatfes B.-Bak. 
Antennae of $ bipectinated to the tips. Tarsi short, wings broad. Neuration of forewing as in Ama- 
tissa. Vein 6 of hindwing probably present, no bar from vein 8 to vein 7, nor a branch to the costal margin. 
C. ekeikei B.-Bak. Thorax silky brown, abdomen greyer. Both wings pale golden brown without 
hyaline areas. $ 38 mm. Ekeikei (New Guinea). 
22. Genus: I*ara©liaractis Meyr. 
Antennae and veins almost exactly like Clania, but only 1 branch extends to the inner margin in the 
forewing, vein 8 of the hindwing is connected neither with the cell nor with the costal margin. Body scarcely 
longer than the round hindwing. Fore wing broad with an oblique distal margin. The spine of the anterior 
tibia is very long. 
P. leeuweni Heyl. (90 k). Body ochreous, wings browner, darker at the margin. Hindwing rounded. 
T 28 mm. Australia. 
P. cautopsis Meyr. Body dark orange brown, antennae blackish, with long pectinations to the tips. 
Forewing short, blackish-brown, costal margin straight, distal margin and fringe blackish. Hindwing with 
black hair also at the inner margin. $ 26 mm. N.-S. Wales. 
P. erionota Low. Thorax ochreous. Antennae dark brown, pectinations black, apical width 6 mm. 
Body and forewing brownish ochreous, ochreous in some specimens, costal margin slightly pressed in before the 
middle. Fringe greyish-brown. Hindwing with a somewhat projecting apex. 28 mm. N.-S. Wales. 
P. delocephala Meyr. is recognizable by the orange head, body and legs dark brown. Antennae with 
black pectinations, apical width 6 mm. Forewing oblong, smoky brown, darker at the margins, fringe long, 
very dark. Hindwing rounded. <$ 32 mm. Sydney.
