known by the different position and form of the white spot on 

 the anterior wings and the broader, differently coloured band of 

 the posterior. Its short antennae also are a good distinguishing 

 character, giving somewhat the appearance of a Parnassius.

Hab. Bolivia (Mr. Bridges) . 



Above, anterior wings fuscous black, with bright olive-green 

 reflections, marked with a large white spot below the cell, divided 

 into two unequal parts by the first median nervule, and slightly 

 crossing the radial nervure, not extending either to the cell or the 

 inner margin. Cilia white, except at the apex and the ends of 

 the nervules, where they are black. Posterior wings black, with 

 olivaceous reflections, crossed considerably beyond the middle by 

 a band composed of five crimson spots, the first rounded, the 

 second smaller, somewhat oval ; third oval, much larger, rather 

 truncate externally ; fourth oval, rather smaller than the third ; 

 fifth quadrate ; between this band and the margin one or two 

 small faint whitish clouds. Cilia white, except at the end of the 

 teeth. 



Below, all the wings paler than above, without any olive lustre ; 

 the spots of the posterior wings pale, darker externally ; the base 

 of the anterior wings marked on the costa with a brilliant car- 

 mine spot, the cell with four black longitudinal vittse, the white 

 spot as above ; base of posterior wings with three crimson spots, 

 one on the costa, one in the cell, the third below the -median 

 nervure. Cell with three black longitudinal vittse. 



Head black, with two whitish lines in front and two spots of 

 the same colour on the vertex. 



Thorax black, spotted with white above. 



Abdomen black, the sides spotted with white. 



In the cabinet of the British Museum. 



Closely allied to P. Ilus, but easily distinguished by the dif- 

 ferent position and form of the white markings on the anterior 

 wings, the want of the crimson in the discoidal cell below, and 

 other less obvious characters. 



Pap. Pharnaces. Pap. alis omnibus nigris, purpureo-nitentibus, pos-

Hab. America Merid. 



Above, anterior wings fuscous black, paler beyond the middle, 

 with slight purple reflections, the outer margin sinuate, slightly 

 edged with white in the sinuosities. Posterior wings dentate,
