 hy Olivku E. Janson. 



Fapilio ButJeri, n. sp. PI. VIII, f. 3. 



Primaries above deep black, velvety, two spots in the cell, 

 three near the apex and six longitudinal stripes between the 

 nervures on the outer disc deep metallic blue, there is also an 

 obscure spot of the same colour at the costa, just beyond the 

 cell, and a very small one at the anal angle; secondaries dark 

 bi'own, blackish at the base with a mai'ginal series of darker 

 stripes between the nervures, the four outer ones with a small 

 pale blue spot, the fringe spotted with white between the ner- 

 vures; beneath dark brown, both wings with a marginal row of 

 seven bluish white spots, those on the primaries small and round 

 but on secondaries large and sublunate; body black, head, under- 

 side and sides of the abdomen spotted with white. Expanse of 

 wings 3 inches 8 lines. 



Malacca.

Papilio Wallceri, n. sp. PL VIII, f. 2. 



Above Ijlack-brown, the fringes of both wings spotted with 

 white between the nervures; primaries with four faint lines in 

 tlie cell at the base, and two rather indistinct longitudinal stripes 

 on the outer disc between each of the nervures, of rather sparse 

 pale ochreous scales; secondaries with a broad ill defined trans- 

 verse band about the middle, deeply emarginate between the 

 nervures on its outer edge pale slate -blue, a submarginal scries 

 of seven irregular spots and the usual lunulc on the al)dominal 

 margin cinerous, tails short and broad, not contracted at the
