A. circeis Drury is very similar to the type-form of the preceding [ A. parrhasia servona ] Godart, 1819 , merely differing in having the forewing black-scaled only at the margins and on the veins, otherwise almost transparent, while the light yellow median band of the hindwing is of uniform breadth with the distal boundary almost straight. Sierra Leone to North Angola. [4]
