As there still exists some confusion about tbe identification of Linn^'s Pajnlio 

 cli/tia, panojjc, and iHssiiililix, I here insert Linne's descriptions, which are asf'oUows : — 



(1) PiijiUio cljjtia is described in Syd. Nat. ed. x. p. 479. n. 12.") (1758) thus : — 



P.N. alis dentatis nigris : niargine exteriore priinoribus albo inaculato, 



posticis albo luteooi'.e triplici ordine. 

 Habitat in ludiis. 



In Mus. Lud. Ulr. p. 296. n. 114 (1764) Linne gave a fuller description of the 

 wings : — 



Alae Primores nigrae : 



ad margineni exteviorem serie diiplici albo-puiictatae s. niaculatae. 

 — Posticae nigrae, intra margiuem poslicum triplici serie inaculatae. 

 Series prima jMacidis albis, .sagittatis. 

 Series secunda Maculis albis, lunati.s intinia lutea. 

 Series tertia Maculis luteis, reniformibus. 

 Obs. quod series tertia s. exterior a parjina superiore desit. 

 According to this description, the true clytiii is that Papilio from Assam and 

 Sikkim which has the upfier surface of the wings almo.st black, (he forewings provided 

 with a marginal and a submarginal series of white spots, and the hindnings with 

 three rows of spots, of which the interior ones are sagittate, the submarginal lunate, 

 and the marginal ones reniform and yellowish bufif. 



(2) Papilio panope is described in Syst. Nat. ed. x. p. 479. n. 131 (1758) thus : — 



P.N. alis dentatis fuscis concoloribus : limbo exteriore albo maculatis : 

 posticis margine luteo maculatis. 



Hah itat in Asia. 



Alae primores ad marijiiiem e.eterio'reiii maculis ohsoletioribns alhi.s 

 sagittatis. Posticae iutra iiian/ineni jjosieriorem ordine triplici 

 mactilarurn saiiittiforinimu , ipKirtim jinstrennie renifortiies lufrKr. 



In Miis. Litd. Ulr. this insect is uol rcdescribed. 



The description of panope differs from that of J', chjlia chiclly in two points : 

 the wings oi pianope are described as being fuscous, noi black, and tbe forewings are 

 said to have, at the exterior margin, more or less obsolete sagittate maculae, not two 

 series of spots. These two characters are met with in many exami)les of Papilio 

 onpape Moore, which inlialiits Tenasserim, .Malacca, Siam, Cochin China, South-East 

 China, Hainan, and Formosa. Cramer, Pa^). K.cot. IV. p. i;',. t. 295. f. K. v (1782), 

 figured this more eastern insect s.* panope \... wniX IIkti' is no reason to abandon liis 

 identification. 



(3) Papilio dissimilis is described in iSt/st. Nat. ed. x. ji. 479. n. 131 (1758) 

 thus :— 



P.N. alis dentatis dilatato-venosis nigris concolorilms ; maculis sagittatis 



albis postremis subtus luleis.
