64 MR. A. R. WALLACE ON THE PAriLIOKID^ 



male, distingriisli this at a glance from all its allies. It has a comparatively restricted 

 range, and is very constant in both sexes. The plate sent me by Dr. Felder is not num- 

 bered.

llemark. — I believe that two, if not three, well-marked forms or species have been 

 mixed np under the name of P. Amlraa; as I have endeavoured to show by the refer- 

 ences. My specimens of the two sexes of each show a uniformity of character in each 

 locality. 



68. Papllio Ambkacia, "Wallace. 



P. Ambrax, Bd. ; De Haan, Verb. Nat. Gesch. t. 7. f. 1 ( J ). 



Male. Differs from P. Ambrax, Bd., by the ashy-white patch at the apex of the ante- 

 rior wings. 



Female. Has a largo, roundish, white patch on the anterior wings, extending from the 

 discoidal cell to the hinder angle. The red lunules on the hind wings are smaller. Same 

 size as P. Ambrax. 



i/«6. Waigiou (d, ?) (rra//.). 



69. Papilio Epikxjs, n, s. 



Male. Above : — anterior wings as in P. Ambrax ; posterior wings more elongate, the 

 white band much narrower, notched behind at the nervures, with the portions between 

 regularly rounded ; the part which crosses the cell is cut by black ner\aires, and there is 

 an oblique red mark at the anal angle. 



Beneath : — with a submarginal of seven lunules on the hinder wings, the one above the 

 anal angle very large; Avhereas the last two species have one small lunule only beneath, 

 at the anal angle. • 



Female. Is probably that figured in ' Yoy. au P61e Sud,' Lep. 1. 1, f. 5, which resem- 

 bles most the female of P. Ambracia, but differs in the form of the white and red j)atches. 

 It is said to be from " the coasts of New Guinea " ; but as the expedition touched at the 

 Aru Islands, it is very probable that there is an error of locality, as I have ascertained 

 to be very often the case in the indications furnished by these and other ' A^oyages.'

* Having obtained a siieeimen of this insect -nhile these sheets are passing through the press, I find that it should 

 -have been placed next to P. Severm.
