This species may be distinguished from J. albertus by the submarginal row of white 
‘spots on the secondaries beneath, the allied species having a single yellow spot near the 
anal angle of the secondaries. JBelt’s Chontales collection contained a single male 
example, the only one known from our country ; we have another obtained near Muzo, 
in Colombia, by the plant-collector Chesterton ; a third, formerly in the Kaden col- 
lection, was perhaps from Venezuela.

We are not acquainted with Amblygonia amarynthina, doubtfully referred to this 
genus by Mr. Bates. WV. ewmeus, the only species known to us, has a wide range, as will 
be seen below. 
The subcostal nervure of the primaries emits one branch before the end of the cell 
and two after it; the upper radial and the atrophied middle discocellular meet the sub- 
costal at the same point, the latter at an acute angle; the lower discocellular is also 
atrophied and meets the median close to the origin of the second branch; the 
costal side of the cell is longer than the median side. The secondaries have a long 
basal nervure; the upper discocellular is atrophied, and leaves the subcostal a little 
beyond the first branch and makes an abrupt angle with the radial; the atrophied 
lower discocellular can hardly be traced, but it meets the median opposite the origin of 
the second branch; the costal side of the cell is shorter than the median side. The 
front legs of the male have a short coxa; the trochanter is inserted a little beyond 
the middle; the femur >+4 coxa, tibia = coxa, tarsus < tibia. Front leg of the female 
has the terminal joint of the tarsus=second, it has a small setose pad beneath ; the first, 
second, third, and fourth joints have each a strong spine at the end. The palpi of 
the male have a rather slender terminal joint = + the middle joint, which tapers 
slightly towards the distal end; basal joint < 3 middle joint ; the terminal joint in the 
female is long and slender >}4 middle joint, and > basal joint. The antenne have 
forty-one joints, the terminal thirteen forming a moderate club. 
The secondary male sexual organs have the tegumen normal. The harpagones 
terminate in a blunt slightly upturned lobe; another piece starts from the base of the 
harpagones and meets above the penis, in a central blunt spine with two upturned 
teeth at the extremity; it also emits two lateral lobes setose towards their extremity ; 
* Extra-limital genera of this division are Panara, Themone, Oreas, and Syrmatia.
