note that the new subspecies is represented by two more or less isolated populations, which are easily distinguishable by their forewing colouration and pattern. The Kaghan population has even broader forewings, all known specimens are large or very large, the ground colour is typically dark olive-grey and the forewing pattern is uniformly diffuse and pale. The populations occurring in the upper part of the Indus valley and the southern Karakoram are smaller, somewhat more narrow-winged, the forewing ground colour is somewhat more brownish and the elements of the wing pattern are stronger although broadly diffuse. The genitalia of both sexes (Figs 32-33) show no remarkable differences when compared with those of the nominotypical A. asiatica asiatica (Figs 30-31). Figs 32-33. Autophila asiatica megasiatica ssp. n., paratype, Pakistan. 32a-b = Male genitalia, 33 = Female genitalia
