S- Black s]iot at tlic inside ol' the first Kchreous subiuarginal sj)ot to the 

 uuderside of tlie hindwiug almost circular, diameter •> mm. 



?. Markiugs of median band of forewinjr larger tbaa in P. euchenor depilis 

 Rothsch. except the last spot, which has a length of oul)- 13 mm. ; the last but one 

 patch is (i mm. long at vein 2, wliile the two preceding ones have a length of 

 19 mm. each. The ])ostcostal black sjiot of hindwing still more rounded than in 

 mull' and somewhat smaller. 



Hub. Neu Mecklenlnirg (= New Ireland). 



Easih- distinguislied from P. euclienor dr/jilis Rothsch. from Neu Pommern 

 {= New Britain) by tlie shape of the postcostal black spot mentioned in the above 

 description, which in depilis is bar-like (width 3 mm.). 



4. Papilio aegeus keianus subs]), nov. 



3. The subapical series of spots on the forewing is in all my specimens present, 

 but the spots are small, auguliform, and sometimes partly obliterated; below, the 

 grey scales in the apex of the wing are nearly absent. 



The white band on the upperside of the hindwing stops at the lower median 

 branch (while in F. aegeus ormenus Guer. it is extended beyond that vein) ; it varies in 

 breadth as in ormenus, but the two last patches are shorter, and hence the marginal 

 black area between the median nervules is broader than in that form; the oransre-red 

 anal spot is rather large (transverse diameter 3 mm. in /'//«;-s])ecimen), or verv 

 small, but from not one of my specimens absent. Below, tlie submargiual row of 

 reddish orange spots is complete (fj/pe), or the anterior spots are obliterated, in 

 some specimens onty the anal spot and the preceding one being marked ; the anal 

 mark is always large, diameters 4| and o mm. in type, in other s])ocimens little 

 less ; there are usually three distinct blue subdiscal lunules marked (f'/pe), and 

 an indistinct blue spot between veins (5 and 7; the grey lunules standing before 

 them in ormenus are either absent {type) or slightly marked. 



? . Dimorphic, the forms corresponding to ormenus $ -f. pohjdorinus and ? -f. 

 amanga, in Nov. Zool. p. 307 (1895). 



a. j-f. amaranta f. nov. — The patch in the apex of the cell and the elongate 

 discal ])at('hes ]mrer white than in iiegeus ormenus, more shar]dy defined, especially 

 on the und(^rside ; the cellular patch varies in size from S to 4 mm. (longitudinally); 

 the marginal markings are much larger than in any other form oi aegeus, coming 

 in size near those of the ? of P. gambrisius, the last but one, for instance, being 

 4 mm. broad and 1^ long ; there is in most individuals (/y/^c) a distinct trace of small 

 huffish submargiual spots, which, if joined to the marginal ones, would produce a 

 kind of nail-head-shaj)ed mark as it is found in the male of /'. pohjtes L. 



The white discal area of the hindwing agrees with that of ormenus ?-f. 

 pohjdorinus as figured by Wallace, Trails. Linn. Soc. I.ond. XXV. t. 3. f. 3, which 

 is said to be from AVaigeu, though in characters it agrees well with the Kei 

 Island form ; the submargiual and marginal spots are as large as in Wallace's figure
