are, however, as small as iu P. euvijp)jlus ou both sides; the cellular sjiots of the 

 forewings, except the two uppermost, are reduced, the two median ones on the 

 underside mere dots in the Humboldt Bay examples. 



The scaling of the. median banrfof the upperside of the wings is in this and the 

 two preceding races almost the same : on the forewings that band is devoid of scales 

 except at the nervules ; on the hindwings the antecellular portion has the normal two 

 layers of scales, which are white ; the intracellular part is much less densely scaled 

 save at the subcostal vein ; and the postcellular portion is de\oid of scales save at the 

 median veins. In the following race (P. lycaon Feld.) the posterior portion of 

 the band of the forewings, at least from the lower median nervule to the hind 

 margin, bears more or less dispersed white scales besides the usual short hairs; on 

 the hindwings the cellular portion of the band is almost as densely scaled as the 

 antecellular part, and the postcellular mark is also more or less overpowdered with 

 white scales.

The submarginal spots are much larger on the underside of the wings than on 

 the upperside, and in this respect the Australian race comes near to many examples 

 of the Indian form. The median band, which is whiter than in the other races owing 

 to the difference in the scaling referred to under (c), varies somewhat in breadth ; 

 sometimes the whole discoidal cell of the hindwings is filled up with greenish white, 

 and shows a small black spot near the apex within the white.

Of the size of P. evemon Boisd. Forewings narrower than in P. eurypyhis lycaon 

 Feld.; upperside, submarginal spots as large as in that race; basal cellular spots 

 larger, the fourth (tlie second from the apex) of even breadth ; discal macular band 

 as narrow as in P. eui-ypylus jason Esp., all the nervules traversing it black; the 

 lowest spot of this band on the forewings shorter than that between the lower median 

 nervules. On the underside the submarginal spots are not quite so large as in 

 P. eui-ypylus lycaon ^\'estw. 



Hindwings, upperside, with the submarginal marks as large as in lycaon, the 

 two additional linear spots inside the second submarginal spot longer than in the 

 other races; median band narrow, sometimes separated into three spots, its scaling 

 nearly as in P. eurypylus, but not so dense within the cell. Below, the submarginal 

 spots are longer (haii iu lycaon, but not quite so broad; the red spot near the anal
