4. S. spini (Den. and Schiff.). 



subsp. cephalonise Christoph. 



5. S. stoliczkana Felder. 



[syn. huttoni Moore.] 



subsp. schenki Staud. fPiingeler (1900) has added a form galeropa.] [S. huttoni (the 



type of Neoris) has priority of 12 years over stoliczkana, so it is necessary to write the 



species Saturnia huttoni, with subspecies S. huttoni schenki.] 1 



6. S. boisduvali Eversm. [Jordan refers this to Caligula.] 



7. S. jonasi (Butl.) [Jordan refers this to Caligula.] 



8. S. pavonia-minor (L). 



9. S. anna Moore. [Jordan refers this to Caligula.] 



10. S. lindia Moore. [Jordan refers this to Caligula.] 



subsp. hockingi. (Moore). [A synonym of lindia, according to Jordan, who describes a 

 new subspecies bonita from Tibet.] 



11. S. grotei Moore. [Jordan refers this to Caligula.] 



12. S. bieti Oberth. [Jordan refers this Chinese species to Caligula.] 



13. S. medea Maass. 



[This species, from Ecuador and Peru, has more recently (.1911) been separated as a 

 new genus Satvrniodes Jordan.] 



14. S. galbina Clem, [type of Agapema.] 



[Watson notes that the larva of S. pyretorum has been figured by Sasaki (1910), and has 

 the tubercles longer and more heavily armed with spines than those of any other Saturnia 

 known to him; they are similar to those of Samia c-ecropia.] 



[Jordan (in Seitz) regards S. pyri (pavonia-major) as the type of Saturnia, and proposes 

 a new genus Eudia for S. pavonia {pavonia-minor) and spini.] 



SATURNIA ATLANTICA Lucas. 



Algeria, two c? , one 9 (Paris Museum). Very near pyri; expands only 34 inches. Evi- 

 dently derived from nyri. 



SATURNIA BOISDUVALII Eversmann. 



Plate XXXVIII, fig. 1. 



[At the Paris Museum Dr. Packard made the following notes, comparing Agapema galbina 



with S. boisduvalii:] Saturnia galbina represents boisduvalii from Kiakhta, Siberie Orientale, 



but is smaller, and without the zigzag submarginal lines of European and Asiatic species. It 



comes a little nearer boisduvalii than spini. In boisduvalii the female antennae are with quite 



long pectinations. 



SATURNIA GROffEI Moore. 



Saturnia grotei Moore, Cat. Lep. E. I. Company, II, p. 404, No. 926, 1858. Proc. Zool. Soc. London, p. 2G5, No. 2, 



PI. LXV, fig. 2, 1859. 

 Saturnia grotei Butler, Illustrations of Lep. Het. Brit. Mus., V, p. 61, PI. XCIV, figs. 3 and 4, 1881. 

 Saturnia grotei Kirby, Syn. Cat. Lep. Het., I, p. 772, 1892. 



A true Saturnia. Four large equal ocelli and apical mark; dark fawn-brown; hind wing 

 rose in middle, including discal spot. 



Geographical distribution. — Darjiling (Lidderdale; British Museum). 



[The following is referred above to Saturnia, but Jordan (in Seitz) leaves it in Caligula, 

 as a subspecies of C. boisduvalii Ersch.:] 



SATURNIA JONASD. (Butler). 



Caligula jonasii Putler, Ann. and Mag. Nat. Hist. (4), XX, p. 479, 1877. Illustrations Lep. He*. Brit. Mus., II, p. 16, 

 PI. XXV, fig. 2, 1878. 



Geographical distribution. — Yokohama, Japan (Jonas). 



[Saturnia rubella Dogn. from Peru, is, Dr. Dyar remarks, evidently not a Saturnia. It 

 is described as entirely bright rose-lilac, costa pale, faint paler lines and a small faint black 

 discal spot.] 



1 [However, Jordan (in Seitz) now places huttoni in Neoris. Mr. Watson agrees that shaduila is to be separated from NeorLi.]
