ings as the male, but without m\j hkie tiuge. This species is very like Euplcea Bhada- 

 manthus, one of the most eommou hutterfiies in all the above-mentioned localities. It 

 is undistinguishable from that insect on the wing, though it flies very slowly, like the 

 species it mimics.

Hab. Borneo (J) {TValL). 



Remarks. — The last two species should probably form a distinct group, on account of 

 the peculiar elongation of the cell of the lower wings. They both resemble dark species 

 of Buploea. P. Slateri is a quite distinct species from North India, to which Mr. Hewit- 

 son referred the present species as the female. All the specimens kno^^Ti of both species 

 are, however, males.

P. dissimilis, var., Brit. Mus. List of Papilionidje. 

 Hab. Timor (d, ?) [JFall.). 



Remarks. — This species has been confounded with P. dissimilis, from which it is very 

 distinct, by the absence of the yellow marginal band beneath. It is also widely separated 

 geographically from that species, which inhabits the continent of India only. The sexes 

 are alike, as they are in P. dissimilis. P. Panojpe, L., Avhich has been supposed to be its 

 female, is a very distinct species, of which also both sexes exist in most collections.

Remark. — This fine new species has been recently received from Menado, and seems 

 best placed in this group, near P. Encclades.
