 black lunulcs near the margin; the hind wings fulvous at the

 the wing occupied by a broad whitish band, intersected by 

 blackish veins, followed by a row of fulvous lunules, with

 of ochraceous lunules in the middle. 



Another variety, also described as a distinct species, under 

 the name of Papilio tesselata, is mentioned as being paler 

 than the ordinary colour, and the fore wings more fulvous 

 beneath; the hind wings, underneath, entirely straw-coloui'ed, 

 with black veins; at the base three large yellow spots, edged 

 with black; a broad curved baud of straw-colour, edged with 

 black, and with an irregular black line running through 

 the middle of it, across the centre of the wings, and this 

 succeeded by a row of black crescents, the margin being 

 straw yellow, with a black vandyked line running along it. 



The figures are from specimens in my own collection.
