(q-) : ?-ab. loc. esperi Hutl., I.e. (?, nee cJ). 



Korewings with a liirge wliite sul.apical patch ; hindwings almost as in the mfile. 

 I restrict this name to the female, as the nude specimens wliich Hutler mates with 

 this/e»w/e are not wortli a varietal name. This coDspicuous aberration seems to be 

 confined to the Malay Peninsula, and I enumerate it, therefore, as " ab. loc." {(tberrntio 

 alicidus lod). 



(i'^) : ? -ab. hutlerianus nom. nov. 

 Papilio nifslm- Butler (;i-r Hiibner, 181G), I.e. ( ? , n/'c ,^) : DLst., I.e. t. 28. f. 7. 



Forewings with a large white patch at the hinder angle; hindwings almost as in 

 the male, hut with a red anal ring. 



Hiibner's name of mestor was given to the male as figured liv Cramer. I.e. t. 91. 

 and cannot at all be applied to an aberration of the female which Dr. A. G. Butler 

 has quite arbitrarily mated with Cramer's figure. 



(s"-) : ? -ab. cilix Dist., I.e. ( ? , vec <S). 



Differs from ?-ab. phoenix Dist., especially in the hindwings having only two 

 distinct white .spots besides an anal red ring. 



If .Messrs. Godman & Salvin's P. cUix comes in the .same genus with /•■. memnon 

 L., Distant's name of cilix must sink. 



(<2) : ab. depelckini Robbe (see the corresponding form of the c?). 



Similar to the male of ab. depelehini Kobbe, but paler, with a strong olive-green 

 glo.ss on the hindwings, the latter with an incomplete anal red ring. 



(«-) : Like (r-), but hindwings with a white baud along the abdominal 

 margin. 



(v-) : Like fi/-), but anal red mark witlioul a lilack centre. 



Some of these aberrations reseinblc certain malefi of 1'. rketeiicn- Westw. ; this 

 superficial resemblance has, however, nothing to do with mimicrv. 



((/'): ?-f alennor Cram., I.e. Tailed, the white spots morn or less stronglv 

 tinged with red. 



(iv-) : Typical coloration. Spot at base of forew'ings abo\e red. Hindwings 

 with a small white spot within the apex of the cell and five sniiiU 

 white spots round the cell.
