18. Genus: •Sana Wkr 
Palpi somewhat projecting beyond the head. Antennae of hardly (+ of the length of the costal margin, 
in the + long, in the $ shorter pectinated. Hind tibiae with long spins. Forewing broad. Veins 3—6 at about 
equal distances from the cell, veins 7 + 8 + 9 stalked, vein 10 absent. In the hindwing likewise veins 3—6 
at equal distances, 6 and 7 separated half as far, 8 near the base connected with the cell by a bar. Frenulum 
in the + present, in the $ feeble or absent. Type: eurymas H.-Sch. 
J. strigina Westw. (43 c). Reddish-brown, between the antennae in the $ white. Forewing with a strigina. 
light straight subbasal and interior line obliquely distad. The third and fourth lines obliquely proximad, slightly 
excurved in the centre. All outside edged with dark. Before tire fourth a broad faded light lunular line, behind 
it large light spots. The area before the 3 other lines likewise somewhat lighter. Hindwing with a broad light 
interior band and double median band, both straight, the exterior one notched. At the anal margin at the 
base a large black spot, between the light bands likewise black. 115—135 mm. Sierra Leone, Togo, Cameroon, 
Congo. — camerunica Aur. The third and fourth lines on the forewing straight, distal area very dark. On the camerunica. 
hindwing the black basal spot longer. The blackening between the light bands more washed out. + 140 mm. 
Cameroon. — nobilis Holt, is said to differ in the grey ground-colour with a dark brown and black marking, nobilis. 
Abdominal segments edged with black, but from Holland’s figure this cannot be seen. Cameroon, Congo. 
— agrippina Weym. (46 b). More fadedly marked, between the second and third lines lightest. Otherwise the agrippina. 
faded brightening is absent. On both wings a strong undulating line. 9 125 mm. East Africa. 
J. pseudostrigina Rothsch. Paler than strigina. In the light area on the inside of the fourth line a pseudostri- 
row of arrow-heads united into lunae, instead of a double row of separate small spots. On the hindwing the gum. 
interior band is narrower. Congo. 
J. preciosa Aur. (43 d). Easily recognisable by the very much projecting point at the apex of the preciosa. 
forewing. <+ mostly ochreous, + more reddish particularly on the hindwing. Collar black, patagia without 
a spot. Lines blackish-brown. The two first very obliquely distad, almost parallel. The third and fourth also 
almost parallel, in the centre slightly inserted. Between them two dark rows of dots or streaks and light veins. 
Hindwing with 2 broad black bands, the exterior band of lunular spots. 95—110 mm. Cameroon. Congo. 
J. eurymas H.-Sch. (43 c). Larger than preciosa. Antennae of $ shorter pectinated than usual. Marking eurymas. 
similar, colour very variable, + mostly greyish ochreous, 2 violettish-brown. Abdomen of + orange-red, in 
the $ brownish-red. A black shoulder-spot always present. On the fore wing at the cross-vein mostly 3 or 4 
small black spots. At the inner margin the second and third lines are mostly contiguous, in other specimens 
the distance is greater. 115—140 mm. Togo, Cameroon. — In caesarea Weym. (46 b) the third and fourth caesarea. 
lines are straight, the third slightly doubling outwards. In the type the exterior band of the hindwing is very 
broad. $ 140 mm. East Africa. — transvaalica Strand is the form figured by Distant, in which only the fourth transvadli- 
line is present; it occurs also elsewhere and hardly deserves a special name. ca - 
J, propinquestria Strd. (45 b). In the colour similar to eurymas. On the forewing the first line is propinque- 
moderately distinct, the second is absent, also the spots at the cross-vein. The third and fourth are almost stria. 
parallel, vertical to the inner margin and close together. Behind the third traces of a doubling, before the 
fourth very light. Hindwing as in eurymas. + 100 mm. Cameroon. 
J. roseata Rothsch. Body pink mixed with brown. Forewing salmon-coloured and powdered with roseata. 
pinkish-brown. On the cross-vein a tripartite dark spot. The first and second lines are oblique, only the second 
is more distinct, the third curved, the fourth straight, all 4 black. On the hindwing the interior band is somewhat 
indistinct, the exterior one very broad, at the distal margin indented. + much redder, the lines on the forewing 
more indistinct. (+) 130—120 mm (2). East Africa, Angola. 
J. aurivilliusi Rothsch. 9 antennae black. Body reddish-brown powdered with black. Forewing the aurivilliusi. 
same. On the cross-vein a pale streak, before it 2 incomplete black lines. Behind them the third and fourth 
lines double, and a zigzag line. Hindwing less powdered with black, with a large black basal spot. Behind 
it an inner and two outer undulating broad bands and one before the distal margin. 130 mm. Niger 
District. 
J. obscura Aur. (45 b). Head yellowish, the rest of the body and the wings greyish-brown. On the obscura. 
forewing the third line is centrally incurved, the fourth double, filled with whitish. Behind it on the veins 
white dots. The first two lines are absent. On the hindwing a narow light outer band, behind it broadly somewhat 
darker. $ 90 mm. Gold Coast. 
J. variegata Rothsch. Body red-brown, thorax with black and white hairs. Forewing olive brown; variegata. 
veins, except at the margin, black, with numerous transverse lines which are edged with white and bordered 
by a double black exterior line being filled with white and centrally excurved. In the marginal area 2 black 
bands, the inner one broader, blacker. Hindwing cinnamon-brown with a black oviform basal spot, 2 black
