   PapUio 
  Conon. 
  (Plate

  fig.

  Upper 
  Side 
  white, 
  transparent 
  towards 
  the 
  apex 
  of 
  the 
  anterior 
  

   wing. 
  Anterior 
  wing 
  crossed 
  from 
  the 
  costal 
  margin 
  by 
  five 
  short 
  

   transverse 
  bands 
  of 
  black. 
  The 
  first 
  near 
  the 
  base 
  crosses 
  the 
  me- 
  

   dian 
  nervure, 
  but 
  is 
  not 
  continued, 
  as 
  in 
  Agesilaus, 
  on 
  the 
  posterior 
  

   wing; 
  the 
  second, 
  which 
  is 
  the 
  longest, 
  also 
  crosses 
  the 
  median 
  

   nervure, 
  the 
  others 
  are 
  shorter 
  ; 
  the 
  outer 
  margin 
  and 
  a 
  line 
  

   which 
  runs 
  nearly 
  parallel 
  to 
  it, 
  and 
  joins 
  it 
  at 
  the 
  anal 
  angle, 
  

   black 
  and 
  narrotv 
  ; 
  posterior 
  wing 
  tailed, 
  the 
  tail 
  and 
  outer 
  margin 
  

   black, 
  enclosing 
  six 
  lunular 
  white 
  spots, 
  the 
  base 
  and 
  inner 
  side 
  

   of 
  the 
  tail 
  white, 
  a 
  lunular 
  black 
  spot 
  at 
  the 
  anal 
  angle, 
  sur- 
  

   mounted 
  by 
  one 
  of 
  scarlet. 
  

  

  Under 
  Side. 
  Anterior 
  wing 
  as 
  above, 
  posterior 
  wing 
  crossed 
  

   near 
  the 
  inner 
  margin 
  by 
  two 
  transverse 
  bands 
  of 
  black. 
  The 
  

   inner 
  band 
  is 
  straight 
  and 
  passes 
  from 
  the 
  costal 
  margin 
  (where 
  

   it 
  is 
  marked 
  by 
  a 
  spot 
  of 
  scarlet) 
  to 
  near 
  the 
  anal 
  angle. 
  The 
  

   outer 
  band 
  is 
  curved, 
  has 
  its 
  inner 
  margin, 
  as 
  in 
  P. 
  Agesilaus, 
  

   bordered 
  with 
  scarlet, 
  and 
  joins 
  the 
  inner 
  band 
  at 
  a 
  distance 
  from 
  

   the 
  anal 
  angle.

  This 
  species 
  does 
  not 
  differ 
  on 
  the 
  upper 
  side 
  from 
  P. 
  Protesilaus; 
  

   on 
  the 
  under 
  side 
  it 
  does 
  not 
  differ 
  from 
  P. 
  Agesilaus, 
  except 
  in 
  

   the, 
  position 
  of 
  the 
  transverse 
  bands 
  on 
  the 
  posterior 
  wing. 
  If 
  

   not 
  sufficiently 
  marked 
  to 
  form 
  a 
  distinct 
  species, 
  it 
  is 
  at 
  least 
  

   a 
  curious 
  variety, 
  having 
  the 
  characters 
  of 
  two 
  species, 
  and 
  pos- 
  

   sessing 
  peculiarities 
  of 
  its 
  own 
  besides. 
  

  

  Mr. 
  G. 
  R. 
  Gray 
  was 
  so 
  kind 
  as 
  to 
  include 
  this 
  species 
  at 
  my 
  

   request 
  in 
  his 
  British 
  Museum 
  Catalogue. 
  I 
  am 
  answerable 
  for 
  

   the 
  error 
  in 
  the 
  date 
  there 
  given, 
  having 
  intended 
  to 
  figure 
  it 
  last 
  

   year.
