2nd correction. This is A. major female because in the amphimuta female the blue extends close to the tornus and should be seen in the picture.

A correction. Spot 5 should be spot 6 in the sentence for A. amphimuta and the sentence for A. major.

My mistake. Spot 5 should read spot 6 ie post-discal spot in space 6

Should be A.amphimuta female. Note bulging abdomen. Fwing postdiscal band partially dislocated(hidden). Hwing tailless;no tornal cilia white spot;postdiscal spots 4&5 fully conjoined;spot 6 nearer spot 5 than cellend bar. A. amphimuta-space7 middle and outer spots same sized and equal or a little smaller than spot 5; or middle spot about 3/4 of outer spot which should at least 3/4 of spot 5. A. major- middle spot 2/3 or less of outer spot or both 2/3 or less of spot 5. Note Fleming L183 is now A. major and L187B is now A. norda.
