 level of the protuberance on the thorax. 



25. Pap. Moorei, nov. sp. 



Male — Upper surface pale yellowish-white ; seven transverse black 

 bands on the primaries; all arising from the costal margin, the first 

 extends to the inner margin ; the second, as far only as the sub-median 

 nervure : the three following are bounded by the median nervure, and 

 are contained within the disc, the fifth being at its extremity; the 

 sixth and seventh, which last is marginal, are continued to the inner 

 angle, becoming confluent beyond the third sub-median nervule; the 

 space confined between these latter two, and the fifth, is of a deeper 

 yellow than the rest of the surface, and sub-divided into spots by the 

 black nervules. 



Base of wing somewhat greenish. 



Secondary wings, of the same color, but so very thin that the mark- 

 ings of the lower surface can be plainly seen above; area near the 

 exterior margin and tail, thickly powdered with dark gray atoms; a 

 marginal row of seven black lunate spots, situated above the white in- 

 dentations , an obscure sub-marginal row of the same at the upper part 

 of the grayish area, of which the two outer are the most distinct; anal 

 indentations yellow; tail very long and narrow; length 1.08 inches; 

 ciliae white; expanse 3.75 inches. 



Body yellowi.sh-white. with a black dorsal and two lateral bands. 



Under surface: fore wings same as above, with the exceptions that 

 the second band is produced a little farther than the sub-median nervure, 

 and the sixth and seventh are not confluent. 



Posterior wings yellowish; three principal transverse bands, one very 

 narrow, extends along the sub-median nervure ; the other two, much 

 broader, arise, one at about a fourth, the other at half the lenuth of
