THE BUTTERFLIES OF SIAM. Ill 



The females in my collection are 9-i distantianus Rofchsch. 



Jordan states that the males of memnon never visit puddles or 

 moist spots on the ground, but I have frequently found them at such 

 places both on the Petchabiiri River and in the Sriracha forest. 



Near one of my camping places on the Petchaburi River was a 

 moist "salt-lick" much frequented by deer which swarmed with butter- 

 flies throughout the da3\ Here P. m cujenor was a very frequent visi- 

 tor, and the moist soil seemed to have such an attraction for it that it 

 was often quite easy to take specimens with the fingers. 



18. Papilio protenob euprotenok Fruhst. 



Rare. Three males taken on the Petchaburi River in April 



1910. 



19. Papilio polyctor triumphator Frusht. 



Taken by Fruhstorfer at Chantabun. I have not yet come across 



It. 



20. Papilio paris paris Linn. 

 Faii-ly common in all forest areas. 



21. Papilio palinurus palinl'rus Fabr. 



A single male was taken on the Petchaburi River in April 1910. 



22. Papilio agetes agetes Westw. 



I took a few specimens of this butterfly on the Petchaburi River 

 in April 1912, but have not come across it since. 



23. Papilio nomius swinhoei Moore. 



24. Papilio aristeus heemoceates Fldr. 



This butterfl}'' and the preceding are common in all forest areas. 

 Vast numbers of both were seen in April 1912 at the Siamese Survey 

 Camp in the Huey Meh Pradone in N. Lat 13° and E. Long 99° 30'. 



They were present in all the numerous groups of butterflies 

 around the camp, but seemed to foregather by preference with other 

 Papilios, particularly P. macareus indozhinensis and P. megarus similis. 

 In addition to those around the camp, vast crowds were flying down 

 stream throughout the daj'. 



25. Papilio antiphates pompilius Fabr. 



This butterfly was fairly common on the Petchaburi River in 

 April 1910, but I have seldom come across it since. 



26. Papilio pateni subsp ? 



vol. ii, dec. i'Jk;.
