The riiig-niacula is a black dot. Reiiiform macula edged witli bluish white dots, pointedly extended above. 
Exterior line dark, with white scales inside, similarly undulated as in raducia. Submarginal line chocolate 
brown with bluish white scales outside and a large black spot at the costal maigin, indistinct in the centre 
of the wing, with a bluish white spot in the submedian fold. Hindwing of ^ yellowish red-brown, darker be¬ 
fore the margin, the margin from veins 7 to 4 yellowish. The ^ has a dark brown abdomen and hinflwing. 
— The thorax and forewing of the may be dark brown, with silvery blue scales. Hindwing likewise dark 
brown. — On the other hand, the £>'^^1 $ may also be pale brown with a violettish grey hue. Hindwing pale 
brown. 52—62 mm. Central and East Africa. — According to Prout, hypoxantha is a form of david HolJ. 
(p. 228) which has hardly any projection at the distal margin of the hindwing. 
5. In tlie following species the hindwing’ of the d is angular, the exterior line of the forewing dentate. 
A. funiida Hmps. (25 f). Thorax and forewing greyish brown, with a leaden gloss, somewhat brownish fioiiida. 
ochreous before the margin. Interior line dark, indistinct, its course as usual, inward from vein 2. Reniform 
macula light brown, edged black. Exterior line indistinct, notched, somewhat outwarfl below the costal 
margin and below the cell, introangular at vein 2. Submarginal line of blackish spots below the costal 
margin, then black dots as far as vein 2, a fine line below it to the inner margin. Hindwing brown with a 
broad blackish margin. 64 mm. Natal. 
A. hampsofii Holl. (=- producta Hmps.) (25 e). Thorax and forewing pale brown, the marking dark 
brown. The base as far as the interior line dark. The latter oblique from the costal margin to the submedian 
fold, then inward. Cellular dot black, reniform macula dark, edged blackish. Exterior line indistinct, the 
dents similar to funiida, but larger. Submarginal line veiy indistinct, marked by a few black dots. Darker 
brown from it to the exterior line or almost to it. Hindwing greyish brown, darker at the margin, fringe white 
in the anterior part. The $ has more brownish ochreous forewings. 58—64 mm. West Africa. — Holland 
declares his unrecognizably described producta not to be identical with producta Hynps., unfortunately he does 
not mention any differences. — rubrescens Prout, from Uganda, is more reddish with more distinct lines. The 
waves at the exterior line are less deep. Distinct black spots in front at the sidjinarginal line. It cannot be 
said of course wdiether the form belongs to producta or hampsoni or is identical with either of them. 
A. xylochroa Drc. (25 f). Thorax and forewing ochreous greyish brown, dark brown at the base .as 
far as the interior line. The latter obliquely outward, with angles at the upper and lower cell-margins and 
vein 1. Reniform macula brown, faded, connected with the interior line on the median vein. Exterior line 
dark, dentate as in fmnida, but thicker. Submarginal band greyish brown, faded, undulate. Hindwing light 
brown, broadly dark at the margin. $ greyish brown pn the forewing, costal and distal margins more reddish. 
Interior and exterior lines with bluish grey scales. Sid^marginal line marked by bluish grey spots. 65 mm. 
Congo District. — According to Prolt, xylochroa is only a pale producta Holl. 
A. gonoptera Hmps. (26 a). On the whole very similar to xylochroa, but separated from all the sj)ecies 
of this group by the round black siibapical spot which is connected with the costal margin by a whitish streak. 
Interior line faded, fused with the dark basal area. The extinct reniform macula is surrounded by white dots. 
Exterior line faded, outward below vein 2 as in xylochroa. Submarginal band as in xylochroa, but with the 
already mentioned spot and streak at the costal margin. Hindwing not different. — extincta Gaede (25 f) 
belongs to this species owing to the apical marking. Interior and exterior lines absent. The ring-macida is 
a dot, the reniform macula scarcely darker, the white marginal dots extinct. Below' the suba])ical s])ot the 
submarginal line is marked by an undulated row of black dots, lighter behind it as far as the margin. Hind¬ 
wing not different. — 45—55 mm. Rhodesia, East Africa. 
A. tumiditermina Hmps. (25 f). Thorax and forewing pale olive yellow. Interior line brown, indistinct, 
pointedly outward below vein 2, then somewhat inward. Cellular dot black, reniform macula pale brown. 
Exterior line brown, somewhat dentate, slightly introangular at vein 6 and in the submedian fold. Sub- 
marginal line with 2 black spots at the costal marghi, then formed of greyish l^rown dots, ending at the inner 
margin with two larger grey spots. Hindwing pale brown, with a broad dark brown margin. The $ is pale 
red-brown on the thorax and forewing. 58 mm. Rhodesia, Tanganyika District. 
A. despecta Holl. (26 a). Thorax and forewing pale red-brown. Interior line dark brown, straight, despecta. 
somewhat inward. Close behind it the black cellular dot. Reniform macula only inside distinctly edged. Ex¬ 
terior line excurved below the costal margin, then obliquely inward, slightly inserted. Submarginal line -with 
two black spots below the costal margin, then interrupted and partly extinct. Hindwing brown, blackish at 
the margin. $ red-brown on the thorax and forewing. 48—52 mm. Niger District, Gabun. 
A. rufescens Hmps. (26 a). Similar to tumiditermina, but more reddish, except at the costal margin, rufcuccns. 
Interior line indistinct, projecting outward below vein 2. Cellular dot and reniform macula extinct, edged 
black. Exterior line indistinct, dark, apjmrently steeper from vein 2 than in tumiditermina. In the submarginal 
line the two black spots at the costal margin are larger, the grey spots at the inner margin smaller than in 
tumiditermina. Hindwing somewhat lighter, the dark marginal band narrower at the anal angle. ^ 55 mm.
