In most specimens of either sex the hindwings are produced into a short tooth 

 at the end of the upper median nervule. 



(?. Large. Streaks of bluish grey scales on the upperside much reduced, chiefly 

 on the hindwings, where a rather broad marginal area is without such scales. The 

 exterior black spots on the underside of the hindwings in the anal region are larger 

 than in P. memnon I>. and ar/enor L. ; the transverse red bars, bordering them 

 inwardly between the median nervules, stand farther from the margin than in those 

 local races. 



? . Monomorphic ; large, tailless, 



Vppei'side: forewings white; ajjcx, outer and costal margins narrowly black; 

 jiatch at base, veins, and internervular folds also black ; red mark at base large. 

 Hindwings black, gi'eenish glossy, bluish at the costal margin, with six cone-shaped 

 white discal marks ; cell without white ; submarginal black spots large, that between 

 the lower median nervules more than twice as long as broad, and, like the more 

 rounded anal spot, partly or entirely encircled with reddish ochreous. 



Underside : forewings as above, but rather more white. Hindwings with the 

 discal white markings smaller than above. Behind the costal margin stands a seventh 

 spot, which is mostly lunate, often ochreous red, and aj)pears also sometimes on the 

 upperside. Ochreous colour at anal angle yellower than above. 



Abdomen entii'ely black.

6. Resembles P. 'memnon L., but is tailed. The grey area on the underside 

 of the hindwings assumes sometimes the same peculiar ochraceous colour which we 

 find in P. 'memnon merapu Doh. from the lesser Sunda Islands. 



?. Monomorphic in sliape of the hindwings, being always tailed; dimorphic in 

 colour. 



(n-): Typical coloration. Hindwings with a large discal white patch consisting 

 of a large cellular and seven large extracellular spots ; with one series of black spots. 



(h^): Hindwings without white, with two series of black si)ots.

T)ruce described this species from Borneo, from Mr. Low's collection ; this locality 

 is most i)robably eiToneous. The material collected by Mr. Low in many of the 

 P^astern islands (see Druce, I.e.) had been in the bands of several collectors before 

 it came (for the most part) to Mr. Druce; so it is quite probable that the localities 

 have partly been mixed up. Certain insects mentioned in .Mr. Druce's paper bear the 

 locality "Palawan."
