Saturnia cervina, Westw. 
Tota roseo-cervina, alls anticis spatio minuto transverse squamis 
destituta ad apicem cellulje, striolaqiie paullo obscuriori paullo curvata 
et vix distincta inter cellulam et marginem posticum ; alis posticis 
macula parva trigona ad apicem cellulse ; abdomine magis fulvo ; alis 
anticis apice subrotundatis. Expans. alar, antic, unc. 4I. 
Habitat prope Tati. 
A beautiful species, nearly allied to the European emperor moth, 
Avas taken by Mr. Oates, which appears to be undescribed, although 
it has been named by Mr. Butler, in manuscript, in the British 
Museum collection : — 
Saturnia flavida. 
S. ApoUonice, Cramer, pi. 250, fig. A, persimilis ; differt colore 
fusco-griseo alarum flavido-tincto, fascia fusca pone ocellum, absque 
maculis duabus nigricantibus subapicalibus, colore fusco subapicali 
omnium alarum intus flavido latius marginato. Expans. alar, antic, 
unc. 3^. 
Habitat prope Gubuleweyo. 
I take this opportunity of describing two additional species of 
Saturnia, closely allied to S. flavida, in the Hopeian collection, 
together with a remarkable species collected by Mr. Buxton : — 
Saturnia Terpsichorina, Westw. 
6'. Apolloiiice similis at multo minor et pallidior, ocello alarum 
anticarum ovali, fascia tenui extus connexa, hac prope apicem alse 
absque maculis duabus nigris ; alis posticis basi albis absque fascia 
indistincta subbasali, ocello ovali extus cum fascia tenui fusca con- 
juncta, fascia 2da submarginali ut in S. Apoilonia ; thoracis dorso 
macula livido-fusca ; incisuris abdominis livido-marginatis. Expans. 
alar, antic, unc. 2%. 
Habitat in Africa merid.-orient. In Mus. Hopeiano. 
Saturnia Dyops, Maassen and Weymer, Beitr., fig. 21, 
This species is also closely allied to S. Apoilonia, but wants the 
ocellus in the hind wings. Maassen obtained it from Natal. Specimens 
from South Eastern Africa, and from Angola (Monteiro), are in the 
Hopeian collection at Oxford. 
Saturnia Hyperbius, Westw. 
Alis anticis ferruginosis, puncto minimo vitreo ad apicem cellula: ;

magis aurantiaca, margine apicali plumbeo-tincto, ciliis rufis ; alis 
posticis fulvis ocello mediocri medio cinerco (medio albido) circulo 
nigro ; striga angusta cinerea inter ocelhim et marginem posticum 
plumbesccntcm, ciliis rufis : alis subtus saturatioribus, venis flavis,
