J. frigida Drc. (71 cl). This and the following species are presumably only forms of the preceding, 
connected by all kinds of transitions. Streaks of forewing and bindwing narrower. Central America. Guiana. 
Colombia, Ecuador. 
J. fustula Warr. has the streaks in both wings almost equally broad; smaller than the preceding 
ones. Ecuador. 
J. radians Warr. ( = ? fulvia Drc.) (71 d). Streaks still narrower, particularly in the forewing. 
Mexico to Venezuela and Guiana. 
J. fusigera Wkr. (= fusifera Drc.) (71 c) is larger than the preceding, the streaks, particularly in 
the hindwing broader. 1 still doubt whether it is a distinct species, or only a form of ligata. Mexico to Colombia. 
J. gigantea Drc. (71c) is similar to radians, but considerably larger. Expanse about 45 mm. Panama, 
Costa Rica. 
J. flexuosa sp. n. (71 e) is about the size of fusigera. the streaks are very much broader, that of 
the forewing at 2 3 anteriorly distinctly convex, then much narrower. The black hind-margin of the hindwing 
is at the broadest place only '2 mm broad, in fusigera broader. Mexico. types in the Berlin Museum. — 
A $ from Honduras has in both wings narrower streaks, but that of the forewing has the curve at the costal 
margin. Thus the specimen approximates ligata and may represent a separate race which is called diminuata 
subsp. n. (71 e). 
The following species with a black cos t a of the fore w i n g , larger species. 
J. striata Drc. (71 e). Three quarters of the streak of the forewing are broad, then suddenly narrower 
by strangulation at its posterior edge. Streak of bindwing posteriorly much broader, extending to the hind- 
margin. which is yellow as far as the tornus. Expanse 38 to 40 mm. Colombia, Ecuador. 
J. attenuata Warr. (71 d) is like the preceding, the streak of the forewing is uniformly narrower, 
not suddenly narrowing down. The black posterior margin of the hindwing is broader, extending to about 
half the hind-margin. Colombia. 
J. ampliflava Warr. (71 e). Streak of forewing as in the preceding, the posterior margin of the hindwing 
very narrow. 2 mm broad on an average. Colombia. 
j. andosa Drc. is similar to .striata (71 e), larger. Expanse 50 mm. Colombia. 
J, longistria Warr. is similar to patula (71 e), larger (expanse 44 mm). Hindwing yellow, costal margin 
and posterior margin narrowly black, broader at the apex and before the tornus. Ecuador. 
J. patula Wkr . (71 e). Streak of forewing broad, shortened, ending already at 1 of the 3rd median. 
Hindwing yellow, uniformly margined with black; this margin narrows down to a dot on the tornus. Expanse 
3S mm. Colombia. 
J. gepliyra sp. n. (71 f) is between patula and gopala. Streak of forewing somewhat less expanded 
than in gopala. extending to behind the rise of the 2nd cubitus beyond the analis. Hindwing as in patula. A 
smaller species, expanse 30 mm. Colombia. $ type from Tolima in the Berlin Museum (Fassl). 
J. gopala Dgn. (71 d). Streak of forewing very much distally expanded, broadly truncated. Venezuela. 
J. fluoilia Drc. (71 f). Forewing black with a yellow, angularly curved band extending below the 
costal margin as far as %, then bending round to the tornus in an obtuse angle. The band is 2 mm broad at 
most and widens little. Hindwing black. Ecuador. 
J. banana Warr. (71 f) resembles the preceding, the band of the forewing is very much broader, the 
angle of the curve in the $ much obtuser, in the <$ even the posterior edge of the stripe extends rather straight 
from the base to the tornus. ,,Brazil“. 
31. Gattung: Scea Wkr. 
Distinguished from Josia by the 1 st median of the forewing being always well separated from the radial 
ramus and the 2 nd median not rising at the mouth of the basal median, but behind it, whereby the cross-vein 
is twice angled (except obliquaria). Facies and palpi not rough-haired. 
Sc. auriflamma Hbn. (= nervosa Perty) (71 g). Forewing reddish-yellow, costal margin, veins, hind- 
margin narrower, apex broader black, distal margin narrower towards the tornus. Hindwing black. Brazil, 
Bolivia, Paraguay, North Argentina. 
Sc. obliquaria Warr. (71 g) Cross-vein of forewing but once angled, veins less black, the proxima 
border of the black apical margin is more oblique, straighter; hind-margin broader black. South Brazil, East 
Peru. 
Sc. Solaris Schs. (71 g). Forewing and veins black, a yellow central spot almost to the distal margin. 
Its anterior edge extends as far as about % along the costa and then bends round to the 3rd median. Hindwing 
black with a narrow yellow central stripe which, in a Bolivian specimen, despatches a tooth towards the costa. 
Peru. Bolivia.
