terminal line indistinct and diffuse, oblique from termen below apex to inner margin; a terminal row of 
small black lunules; hindwing pale ochreous, with brown suffusion; the fringe whitish. Ceylon. 
A. brunnea Hmps. (= leucophlebia limps, part.) (20 i). Forewing ochreous, the costal area suf¬ 
fused with red brown, leaving slight pale streaks on the veins; a diffuse brown streak along median vein 
and thence to the oblique subterminal fascia, with two white points on it at lower angle of cell; a slight 
brown streak below base of cell; an oblique pale fascia from apex to cell-fold, with a diffuse dark brown 
fascia below it from termen below apex to vein 3, with small black dashes on it in the intervals; a ter¬ 
minal row of slight black lunules; fringe ochreous mixed with brown, with a brown line near base; hindwing 
ochreous white; the veins and terminal area brown-tinged; a fine brown line at termen; fringe whitish 
with a brown line near base; in the ab. perfuscata ab. nov. (= ab. 1 Hmps.) the hindwing is uniform fus¬ 
cous; in ab. impunctata ab. nov. (—- ab. 2 Hmps.) the white points at lower angle of cell of forewing 
are wanting. Widely distributed; recorded from Ceylon, Borneo, New Guinea, Queensland and S. Australia; 
also occurs throughout S. Africa. 
A. atriceps Hmps. (20 i). Forewing pale ochreous with slight rufous tinge, the veins defined 
by brown streaks except on inner area beyond the oblique subapical fascia; costal edge black brown; 
a diffuse brown mark at lower angle of cell with white points in and beyond the angle defined by black 
scales; an oblique brown fascia from termen below apex to vein 3, where it is diffused inwards to 
loweNangle of cell; a terminal series of black striae; fringe with black line at middle and mixed with 
black at tips; hindwing ochreous white tinged with red brown; fringe ochreous white with faint brown 
line at middle; head and tegulae black. Khasia Hills, Assam; described from a single <$. 
A. leucophlebia Hmps. (21a). Forewing ochreous white with reddish brown irroration; the veins 
except on inner marginal area defined by slight brown streaks; a brown streak below basal half of cell; 
discocellular with brown dots on each side; a diffuse oblique whitish fascia from apex to cell fold, 
with a brown shade below it from termen below apex, with short brown streaks on its inner edge above 
and below vein 5; a terminal series of minute black lunules; fringe with white base and dark tips; 
hindwing ochreous white flushed with red brown except on costa; fringe ochreous white. The Nilgiri Hills, 
Madras; Pirmaad, Travancore. 
A. prisca Walk. (= cramboides Moore) (21 a). Forewing pale purplish rufous, the veins defined 
by slight brown streaks except on inner area; a slight diffuse brown mark at lower angle of cell; an ob¬ 
lique outer series of slight dark points on veins 4 to 1; a faint oblique brownish fascia from termen 
below apex to vein 4; a terminal series of black points; fringe pale with brown line at middle and tips; hind¬ 
wing yellowish white with a faint brownish tinge; — ab. suffusa ab. nov. (= ab. 1 Hmps.) is a darker 
form, in which both the fore and hindwings are more suffused with brown. Travancore and Ceylon. 
A. roseotincia Hmps. (21 a). Forewing pale ochreous yellow with a slight rufous tinge and the 
veins faintly rufous; a slight blackish streak below basal half of cell; some black scales at its lower angle; 
an oblique outer series of black points on veins 6 to 1; an oblique diffuse rufous fascia from termen below 
ajDex to vein 3; a slight brown terminal line; fringe pale yellowish, with a faint brown line through it; 
hindwing white faintly tinged with ochreous. Ceylon. Described from a single 
A. melianoides Warr. (20 h). Forewing dull greyish ochreous with fuscous suffusion; the paler 
ground colour forms two broadening streaks along the cell and submedian interspace, in the former case 
running up to apex; costal area diffusely fuscous in the interstices, the veins remaining pale; a dark olive 
fuscous streak below cell from base widens outwardly beyond middle, its upper edge running obliquely 
to just below apex; a third fuscous suffusion along inner margin; veins paler terminally; stigmata indic¬ 
ated by black dots above and on median vein; traces of a dark dentate outer line; bindwing dirty grey, darker
