This is lens with adapter to modern digital camera. The adapter is put on the lens.
For me it looks like Canon EF or Minolta/SONY A bayonet.

Alfa mate - thanks for the correct answer

I tried previously removing this mount but it was on that tight I gave up assuming (foolishly) that Jupiter must have made this lens with another mount other than the the standard M42. So I went at this mount again and hey presto it un-tightened revealing the M42 thread -all's well in Nirvana again
