the liiiidwiiigs farther from t lie cell and nearer to outer iiian^in lliini in 7'. i},-ni,i,iis {\..). 

 .Most specimens with a green middle streak on the thorax. 



The white patch within the cell of the forewings \aries exceedingly; in .-onn- 

 specimens from Cairns, (Jueensland, it has a length of 16 and a breadth of 8 nun. (as 

 in Gray's figure), while in other examples from the same place it is reduced to two or 

 three minute spots. The discal spots are just as variable; sometimes all, or nearly 

 all, the markings between the second discoidal nervule and the submedian vein have 

 disappeared. 



On the hindwings above, the postcostal spot is mostly yellow ; the other sub- 

 marginal markings, and the submarginal portions of the wedge-shaped spots, are also 

 yellowish, but much suffused with black scales. In some individuals the interior parts 

 of the wedge-shaped markings are more or less obliterated. 



Tlie submarginal spots of the hindwings below are of a much purer vcllow colour 

 than above; the two anterior ones are small; at the anal angli\ iietween the sub- 

 median nervure and the lower median nervule. there is aluav- a \rllii\v mark nl 

 variable size. 



I have some dry caterpillars of this subspecies, from Cedar l!av, \. t^Uii en-laud. 

 whi<-li agree with the description of the larva of ric/niiuiiiliiis given liy Schneiiler (see 

 below), but the dorsal spines on the seventli segment seem to be more yellow than in 

 that race, being in fact all yellow except at the tip. Neither in eiiphovion nor in 

 richmondi'us is there a lateral band. Chrysalis as in richrnondi ns.

 connected along the subcostal nervule with a discal spot, and thus forms a kind of 

 halfring-sliaped mark, .\bdomen as in enphorion ((iray). 



This subspecies is in pattern Ju^t as variable as its more northern relative 

 T. priamus eii,phorioii ((irny). The thonu'ir greenish band of the /<'»i0^e is absent 

 or indistinct. The cellular patch of the forewings of the same .sex is in some 

 individuals ten times as large as in otheis; occasionally there is a small s|iot within 

 the apex of the cell of the hindwings.
