Fic. 111'.). — rapilio telejihiis. 



Male and Female. Closely allied to P. evcmon above, 

 but with the basal linear spot in the cell of the anterior 

 wings continued beneath to near the inner margin. Wings 

 beneath as in P. eremon, but the short dark costal fascia 

 to posterior wings rcd-spottccl as in P. mecisteus, but not 

 passing beyond the subcostal nervure, and thus being well 

 separated from the basal longitudinal fascia which runs 

 parallel with the abdominal margin. 



Exp. wings, (? & 2 , 75 to 80 millim. 



Hab. — Ceylon (Moore). — Malay Peninsula; Penang 

 (Biggs — coll. Dist.) ; Perak (Kunst. — Calc.Mus.). — Borneo ;

Male. Wings above black, with the following pale green markings :— anterior wings with five spots 

 in cell, — the one at apex small and rounded, the others more or less linear, — a discal oblique row of eight 

 spots commencing just beyond end of cell and terminating on inner margin,— of these the third spot 

 is smallest, and the sixth, seventh and eighth much the largest, the last two being more or less fused 

 together,— a small subapical spot and a submarginal row of still smaller spots; posterior wings with 

 the basal half of costal area greyish, three large discal spots, — the largest in cell, the smallest above cell, 

 and the other situate between the two lower median nervules, — a submarginal row of small spots and 

 a large greyish patch on abdominal margin, fringe alternately greyish. Wings beneath paler than above, 

 the spots silvery in hue ; anterior wings spotted as above ; posterior wings with the three discal spots 

 continued to costa in a large silvery patch, yellowish at base, and traversed by two dark fuscous fasciae, — 

 one near base parallel with abdominal margin, the other concave at about centre of wing, between these 

 fasciffi the median nervure is broadly blackish ; beyond cell and extending to a little above anal angle are 

 a series of red spots, the innermost of which is followed by a small greyish spot ; the submarginal spots 

 much larger than above, with two additional Hnear spots situate one on each side of the upper subcostal 

 nervule. Body above with the head and pronotum blackish ; the abdomen fuscous ; body beneath greyish ; 

 legs greyish, streaked with blackish.
