Famassins olympius Stdgr. 

 Parnassins olifmpius Staudinger, Iris. vol. x. i>. 314 {18!)7) (Kuruk Tag). 



These 3 specimens were sent me by Staudinger and Bang-Haas together 

 with 4 others as Parnassins olympius Stdgr. They are immediately distinguish- 

 able from the other 4 by their much larger size, rounder wngs, very white ground- 

 colour, and pure wliite not chequered fringes. As they agree with Staudinger's 

 original description of Parnassius olympius which the 4 others do not, I un- 

 hesitatingly treat them as cotypes of the original olympius. The others I have 

 seen, i.e. my 4 and the specimens figured and described by Verity and Stichel, 

 are not olympius, but, as they rightly say, a form of discobolus. 



Staudinger I.e. states he had received from Haberhauer 22 (J (J and 6 ??, 

 othervrise I should have certainly considered these 3 specimens as hybrids of 

 apollo X apollonins.
