5. Jemadia azeta. (Tab. LXXIV. figg. 16, 17 s .)

Hah. Guatemala, Polochic valley (F. D. G. & 0. S.) ; Panama, David (Champion).— 

 South America, Peru, Amazons valley \ Bolivia, and South Brazil. 



Hevvitson's description of this species was based upon a specimen from S. Paolo, 

 Upper Amazons, probably from Bates's collection. We have a good series of specimens 

 agreeing with the type from various parts of Tropical America. 



Dissected males from Guatemala, Panama, and Pebas in the Upper Amazons valley, 

 all agree closely in the structure of their genitalia, which are so peculiar that their specific 

 identity cannot be questioned. 



/. azeta is not common in Guatemala, where we only found it in company with 

 <7. hospita in the Polochic valley, and we have only one specimen of Mr. Champion's 

 collecting from David in the State of Panama. In South America the species appears 

 to be more common ; our series includes a specimen from Espirito Santo in Eastern 

 Brazil and another from Chapada in Matto Grosso, the latter having formed part of 

 Mr. Herbert Smith's collection. 



The tegumen of the male genitalia is somewhat like that of J. patrohas, but the lobes 

 at the base are wider at their origin, and the edges more deeply serrate ; the harpagones 

 are very peculiar, the ventral edge being very sinuate towards the end, which consists 

 of a long depressed rod, the middle of the dorsal edge is deeply and irregularly serrate, 

 and a serrate lobe is situated below the edge, on the disc is a short smooth edged lobe.
