f.3($). 

 Hah. Timor [Wall.), N.W. Australia {Brit. Mas.). 



Remarks. — The Australian specimens are smaller. The female of P. (Enomcnis vaixmcs 

 this species, as has hcen already mentioned (p. 22). Both species were taken by myself 

 on the same spot, and, though such large and conspicuous insects, they, could never be 

 distinguished without a close examination after capture. The female of this species 

 differs very little from the male, being rather larger, uith broader Avings and less vivid 

 coloration.

d. Z'lysses group.

 Hab. Amboyna, Ceram (cJ, $) {Wall.). 



Remark.— The largest specimens of this glorious insect are found in the island of 

 Amboyna, where it is rather common, hovering about the forest pathways. It sometimes 

 visits the gardens in the town of Amboyna. 



32. Papilio Penelope, n. s. 



3fale : rather smaller than P. Z^Ii/sses. Upper wings with six black cottony patches, 

 and all separate from each other ; whereas in P. Vlysses there are seven, and the four 

 lower ones are always luiited at their margins. The blue colour tills the discoidal cell, 

 and generally extends beyond it at the extremity ; tlic upper disco-cellular nervure not 

 black-bordered as in P. Ulysses. Lower wings with the blue colour extending further 

 along the abdominal margin, and not quite so far towards the outer angle. 



Female : has the blue colour of the same form and extent as in P. TJhjsscs $ , Imt of the;" 

 same bright tint as in the male ; the marginal lunules more deeply curved. 



Expanse of wings 5 inches. 



Hab. New Guinea, Waigiou, Aru Is. (c?, ?) {Wall.). 



Memark. — As all the other forms closely allied to P. Zlysscs have received names 

 {Telemaclws, Montr., Ohaudoiri, Peld., Telegonus, Peld., and TJlyssimis, Westw.), I have 

 also given one to this form peculiar to New Guinea and the Papuan Islands, the distinc- 

 tive characters of which, though very slight, seem suflBciently constant. 



33. Papilio Telegonus, Felder. 



P. Telegonus, Feld. Lep. Fragm. p. 50. 



Hab. Batchian, Gilolo (J, ?) {Wall). 



Remark.— K very distinct species, separated from P. Ulysses by the extent of the 

 cottony patch on the upper wings, and by the different fonn and colour of the blue 

 markings.
