This beautiful insect inhabits the Moluccas, New Guinea and the adjacent 

 islands, North Queensland, the Bismarck Archipelago, and the Solomon Islands ; in 

 New Caledonia occurs another species (P. montrouzleri Boisd.), which is, how- 

 ever, very closely allied to P. ulysses L. If we unite the ulysses from the Aru 

 Islands, of which I unfortunately could not compare a longer series of specimens, 

 with the New Guineau subspecies, we have seven geographical races of ulysses L. : — 



(") : P. ulysses L. from the Southern ^Molucras ; 



{h): P. ulysses autolycus Feld. from New Guinea, Waigmi, .\rn Islands; 



(c) : P. Wi/ssesjopsa ]5utl. from North Queensland ; 



((/) : P. ulysses teletnachus Montr, from "Woodlark Island ; 



(«) : P. ulysses arahiguus suhsp. nov. fi-oui New Britain and New Ireland ; 



(f) : P. tdysses orsippus Ciodm. t1 Salv. from the Solomon Islands; 



(ij): P. ulysses leleyonus Feld. from tlio Northern Moluccas. 



'I'he cottony stripes on tiie forewings of tlie males are variable in every subspecies, 

 tliough less so in teleyonus ; they are broadest in telerjonus, narrowest in certain 

 examples of autolycus and wsvppus; their size is of no specific value, as can be
