Papilio Jimodi, Trimen, " Transactions of the Entomological Society of 

 London," 1893, p. 138. 



Exp. 3-3^ inches. 



Male. Upperside. Dark brown, with pale greenish-yellow markings, 

 darkest in the cell of the anterior wings, and nearly white on the posterior wings. 

 Anterior wings with six bands in the cell, the first broad, and continued to the 

 inner margin, the second interrupted by the median nervure, but continued 

 lielow to the inner margin, the third, fourth, and fifth narrower, and confined to 

 the cell, the sixth reduced to an oval spot on the upper part of the cell, before 

 its extremity. Beyond and below the cell runs a series of discal spots, which 

 are connected on the lower part of the wing, the portions of the lowest median 

 nervule, and the submedian nervure being whitish where they cross them; the 

 spot nearest the costa is set further outwards than the others, and has a smaller 

 spot within it. Submarginal spots diminishing from the costa to the hinder 

 angle ; fringes black. Posterior wings : basal band continued to the fold, which 

 is very conspicuous, and filled with whitish hair, the hairs along the inner 

 margin being black. Second band broader and whiter than on the anterior 

 wings, nearly parallel to the inner margin, and slightly widened outwards above 

 the median nervure ; it ceases at about two-thirds of the length of the wing. 

 The discal band is broad on the costa, bi;t narrows suddenly between the sub- 

 costal nervules, below which it does not extend, except for two widely separated 

 spots on the disc, one large, and one small, above and below the discoidal nervule. 

 Submarginal spots nearly obsolete ; three whitish ones towards the hind margin, 

 and two blue lunules, more or less filled up with blue dusting, towards the anal 

 angle. Fringes very slightly marked with grey. Tails long, black, marked 

 towards the tips with white, and bordered on the inside with white, the incisions 

 at the anal angle also being white. 



Underside glistening brown, the markings whiter than above, and rather 

 more extended ; submarginal spots continuous ; posterior wings with the two 

 isolated discal spots of equal size ; the dark portions of the posterior wings 

 blackish within the discal band, and marked with three separated red lines ; and 

 within the white spots, and towards the margins with ill-defined black spots ; at 

 the anal angle is a square red spot, surmounted with white, and followed 

 In' tln-ee red streaks, diminishing in size, and curving round to the end of 

 the cell.
