Fringe wliite, l)ru\\nish beliiiid the cell. Hindwing beneath white v/ith a blackish margin. 40 mm. Nyassa 
Land, Mashona Laml. 
0. Ilindwing of d beneath covered with androconia except at the costal margin. 
A. cancellata Saalni. (25 d) strikingly resembles the preceding s])ecies. In the the two maculae and 
the 3 spots of the submarginal line seem to be slightly larger. Exterior line vertical from vein 2, but also in- 
cmrved at the inner margin. Fringe of hindwing ap])arently brown. Hindwing beneath uniformly ochreous 
and covered with androconia. Fringe of hindwing brown also in the $. Under surface white with a dark 
margin. 40—44 mm. Madagascar, Angola, Uganda, Tanganyika. 
4. tiiiidwing' of d beneath entirely covered with androconia. Distal margin of hi rid wing in the d with a round 
irrojection. Exterior line undulated. It is difficult to determine the species owing to their resemblance and varia¬ 
bility. The varying ojrinions of different authors are mentioned in the several species. 
A, conspicienda IFAt. (25 d). Thorax and forewing brownish red. Interior line blackish with traces 
of a doubling inside, inwardly dentate as far as the median vein, far outward in the submedian fold, then in¬ 
ward. A black cellular dot and a mostly shadowy reniform macula with but one white dot each above and 
below. Exterior line blackish, more distinctly double, excurved below the costal margin and at veins 4 and 5, 
incurved between them. Snbmarginal line greyish white, mostly composed of white dots, very indistinct; 
below the apex mostly with two black spots, a grey one in the submedian fold. White dots at the margin. 
Hindwing brown, blackish in the marginal half. Fringe white in the anterior part. — In conspiciens Sfrd. the 
forewing is more dark grey. — A specimen from North-Western Cameroon, which probably also belongs to 
this species, has an ochreoiis ground-colour on the forewing, the doubling of the lines is very distinct, the 
darkening before the submarginal line more distinctly separated from the exterior line, the spot in the sub¬ 
median fold greyish green. The fringe on the darker hindwing is light brown, not white, inangulata Gaede 
is only a smaller dark specimen of it. 55—65 mm. West and East Africa. 
A. reducta Mah. (25 e). Thorax and forewing dark violettish brown, with some leaden gloss, reddish 
before the exterior line. Interior line similar to that of cmispicienda. Reniform macula very indistinct on the 
dark ground, with a white dot below. The exterior line, as far as it is discernible, is also similarly shaped as 
in conspicienda, except that the two lines seem to be nearer together at the inner margin. Submarginal line 
very indistinct, with a small black spot l)elow the costal margin, with black dots at veins 4 and 3, with a small 
grey spot in the submedian fold. Hindwing blackish, lighter at the base, fringe yellowish in front. Forewing 
beneath greyish brown with a broad blackish brown margin. Hindwing ochreous, greyish brown at the margin. 
The $ shows a red-brown ground-colour on the forewing, the marking more distinct. — feminis Strd. is 
similarly light as the $. — pallidula (J Strd. is still lighter, the marking indistinct. 65 mm. Madagascar. — 
According to Aukivilliits, maculata $ WUgr., from the Cape Colony, is allied with jumida Hnips. and hardly 
discernible from reducta $. reducta, however, has an undulated exterior line, which is dentate in jumida. Besi¬ 
des there is a from Fernando Po at hand, very similar to conspicienda beneath, but above it resembles reducta 
in the shape of the lines and the darkness; this may be maculata Wllgr. We figure a specimen from Madagas¬ 
car from the Senckenberg Museum, which is considerably lighter than Hampson’s figure and more distinctly 
marked. It also shows that the exterior line is not bent so far basad at the costal margin as in cmis^ncienda. 
The species or form A. maculata Wllgr. has been passed over by Hamp.sc)N in his elaboration. 
A, subdiversa Proul (25 e) represents reducta in West Africa. The following differences are mentioned; 
exterior line less bent at vein 2. Submarginal line more distinct, with a stronger black spot at the costal 
margin. The grey spot in the snbmedian fold is larger. The smaller ^ has sooty grey forewings and darker 
hindwings. 60—64 mm. Gambia. 
A. violisparsa Proul also resembles reducta (25 e). Thorax dark chocolate brown. ForeAving reddish 
chocolate, dusted violettish, though less between the exterior and submarginal lines. Interior line indistinct, 
l)ut in the submedian fold apparently less angidai than the similar species. Exterior line indistinct, edged 
somewhat violet inside, otherwise similar to reducta, or somewhat more irregular. Submarginal line fine, black, 
interrupted, deeply incurved in the middle, with a more or less distinct black spot above vein 6. Exterior 
border of the submarginal line pale green, less interrupted, absent at the costal and inner margins; violet be¬ 
hind it, indistinctly defined. Hindwing dark greyish brown, narrowly violet before the middle of the distal 
margin. Fringe pale in front, but not white. 65 —70 mm. Cameroon, Uganda. 
A. flavociliata Aur. (25 e). $ thorax dark red-brown. Forewing yellowish brown, darker greyish brown 
in the basal and marginal areas. The lines similar to the t\A'o preceding species. At the interior line the lobe 
projecting below the cell is narrower. The exterior line at the costal margin as in reducta, but more pointedly 
angled at the lower cell-angle, then straight to before the middle of the inner margin. The tAvo maculae as 
hitherto. Submarginal line slightly bent iiiAvard above veins 3 and 4, with black dots, a black streak beloAV 
vein 3, a boAV beloAV vein 2, the whole line with reddish yelloAV scales, a large black spot above vein 6. Hind- 
Aving blackish grey, lighter at the base. $ 62 mm. Cameroon. 
A. hypoxantha Hmps. Thorax light red-brown, abdomen Avhitish broAvn. ForeAving light red-broAvn, 
darker in the distal half. Interior line dark, faded inwardly, Avith Avhite scales OAitside, extending as hitherto.
