Diagnosis. The male genitalia of A. mariana are most similar to those of A. carabayana ; those of A. mariana can be distinguished by the shorter socii, the serrate outer edge of the gnathos, the medially fused distal lobes of the gnathos, and the deeply emarginate postsaccular margin. The two species are dissimilar superficially A. mariana is the largest species in the genus (forewing length 10.2 mm), with a rather illdefined forewing pattern; A. carabayana is a mediumsized species, with a well defined forewing pattern. The strongly concave postsaccular region of the valva is the most conspicuous character distinguishing A. mariana from its relatives.
Description. Head: Frontoclypeus dark brown intermixed with white; vertex white intermixed with dark brown; labial palpus with outer surface pale yellowish brown intermixed with dark brown, inner surface white. Antenna with scape brown intermixed with white; basal 6 flagellomeres dark brown; distal flagellomeres paler brown.
Thorax: Tegula and mesonotum brown intermixed with few pale brown scales. Forewing ( Fig. 68 View FIGURES 68 73 ) length 10.2 mm (n = 1); incomplete basal fascia and costal blotch brown intermixed with brownish orange and dark brown, separated by a pale brownish orange band intermixed with pale brown, recurved from distal costa through subapical area to tornus, encircling an elliptical ocellus, except on posterior end; ocellus brown intermixed with reddish brown; costal blotch subtriangular, darker on posterior half, with a small, oblong, white spot near posterior end; area between CuP and posterior margin pale brown intermixed with pale reddish brown and dark brown; apical area mostly brown intermixed with pale brown; submarginal area with pale reddish brown patches separated by dark brown streaks. Fringe dark brown intermixed with few reddish brown and pale yellow scales. Hindwing pale brown, with irregular transverse mottling, gradually darkening to apex.
Abdomen: Male genitalia ( Fig. 11 View FIGURES 11 12 ; drawn from USNM slide 68569; n = 1) with uncus nearly straight. Socius short, ca. 0.14 length of gnathos arms. Gnathos arms curved dorsoposteriorly and fused medially, forming a recurved band with serrate margin. Valva densely setose from cucullus to sacculus; sacculus sparsely setose, narrowly rounded; postsacculus deeply concave, recurved distally forming a widened apicoventral angle; cucullus acuminate, recurved from 0.5 length to apicoventral angle. Phallus simple; vesica densely microtrichiate. Female unknown.
