stripe near and parallel to posterior pronotal margin, not attaining lateral 
margins. Forewings pale sordid purple, with three transverse narrow purple 
stripes (two, in type) all extending from costal to commissural margin, the 
anteriormost narrower than others and attaining commissural margin of wings 
in repose before scutellar apex, the second attaining commissural margin just 
behind apex of inner claval vein, the third just before claval apex. Face and 
venter concolorous with crown, legs darker apically. 
Holotype male, Achinamiza, Peru, January 14, 1926, “‘F 6021”, H. Bassler 
Collection and one teneral male, same data except ‘“‘F 6001”; one female,

A. trinotata, n. sp., is closely related to A. binotata, n. sp. (above), but differs 
in the form of the aedeagus in caudoventral view as described above, and in 
the usual presence of three transverse dark lines across the forewings.

FIGURE 144, PAGE 187 
Length of male 11.5-12.0 mm. Head very broad and only slightly produced 
for the genus, median length of crown slightly more than four-tenths inter- 
ocular width and slightly more than one-fourth transocular width, clypeus 
broadly flattened. Pronotum with posterior margin weakly concave. Forewing 
with veins elevated and distinct. Hindleg with femoral setal formula 2:1:1; 
length of first tarsomere greater than combined length of second and third 
tarsomeres. Other non-genital structural characters as in A. invenusta, n. sp. 
Male pygofer moderately produced, posterior margin broadly, regularly, 
convex, dorsal margin with a digitate process arising slightly behind mid- 
length, not differentially sclerotized, extending posteriorly, with macrosetae on 
posterior and posteroventral portions of pygofer. Plates extending posteriorly 
slightly beyond apex of pygofer, each with multiseriate macrosetae on ventral 
surface. Style rounded apically. Female unknown. 
Color of crown, pronotum, and scutellum, yellow, a median spot at base of 
crown and one at apex, an incomplete transverse line across anterior third 
and two transverse stripes across posterior half of pronotum and a median 
spot in basal half of scutellum, purple to black. Forewings translucent dull 
greenish heavily marked with purple, with an indefinite area across middle of 
corium marked only by purple longitudinal veins traversing it. Face, thoracic 
pleura, and legs sordid yellow, the legs darker apically.

males, Culebra, N. Duida, Terr. Amazonas, Venezuela, one April 7-16, 1950
