Zootaxa, 2019 Amerila is one of the most studied Afrotropical genera of Arctiinae. However, based on a regionally constrained sample of specimens from Mount Cameroon, we show how superficial our knowledge on these tiger moths is. Among six collected Amerila species, A. femina’s female is described here for the first time, and A. mulleri and A.

Morphology of the Male Genitalia of Lepidoptera II. Monotrysia, Zeugloptera, and Discussion
Insect Systematics & Evolution, 1974 AbstractThe male genitalia of species of Monotrysia (Hepialidae) and of Zeugloptera have been examined, and a number of primitive traits demonstrated. The anatomical structures of these suborders have been compared to those of Ditrysia and of Dachnonypha, and an attempt of reconstructing the ancestral male terminalia of Lepidoptera has been made.
