We arc not snre that the forms here united under P. anchises are specifically 

 distinct from tliose treated as subspecies of P. iphidamas. It is very well possible 

 that all these forms of which the males have hairy tibiae are only geographical 

 varieties of one single species. Onr knowledge of the distribution of these PapiUos 

 in Colombia is very imperfect, and the material examined too scanty for the purpose 

 of deciding the question.

(?. Upperside : forewing distally somewhat transparent, bat less than in the 

 following forms ; green patch reduced, not touching cell, streak behind SM- often 

 ve.stigial ; always at least one white spot, sitnated between M' and M-, often a 



second spot before M', some specimens having also a dot behind M°. H.indwing 



much more strongly glossy bine than in all the allies, the scales on the disc being 

 entire ; three red spots, the last usually the largest, often a minute spot behind M^ 

 and another before W. 



Underside : red baud of hindwing extending forward to SC°, spot M^ — (SM') 

 large as compared with the respective spot in P. iphidamus phalias. 



? . Upperside : forewing less opaque distally than in P. iphidamas ; cell-spot 

 transversely longer than broad, narrower than in P. i. phalias ; two discal sjjots, 

 the second larger than the first, separated from cell or touching it behind 



R^ Hindwing : band crossing apex of cell, almost gradually widened behind, 



reaching forward to SC^ its distal edge farther away from margin of wing than in 

 P. iphidamas. 



Genitalia : <S. Harpe decidedly broader and less curved than in P. iphidamas, 

 the ventral median tooth smaller, being sometimes not larger than the other teeth. 



Hab. Colombia : Magdalena valley, probably on both sides of the Cordillera of 

 Bogota.

c?. Upperside: forewing rather more transparent distally than in a('/«/^e« ; green 

 band very narrow, usually extending forward to R^ a little wider behind than in 



Iront. Hindwing : band consisting of five spots, there being usually a sixtli 



minute spot or narrow streak behind M". 



Underside : the band of the hindwing as in abjattes. 



?. Upperside: forewing more transparent distally than in abjattes; spots 

 more yellow, as are also the fringe-spots on both wings ; cell-spot snbtriangiilar, 

 not reaching across cell, no spot in front of cell ; discal spot U^ — M' very much 

 larger than spot R^ — R\ but much smaller than the cell-spot. Hindwing : baud
