  Doherty 
  having 
  erroneously 
  included 
  some 
  specimens 
  from 
  this 
  island 
  

   in 
  his 
  Celebes 
  collection. 
  No 
  aristolochice 
  is 
  known 
  from 
  Celebes. 
  P. 
  

   polyphonies 
  is 
  very 
  common 
  there.

  "81. 
  Papilio 
  polytes, 
  L. 
  Common 
  all 
  over 
  the 
  district, 
  especially 
  

   around 
  lime 
  trees 
  on 
  which 
  the 
  caterpillar 
  (which 
  is 
  very 
  like 
  that 
  of 
  

   P. 
  erithonius) 
  feeds. 
  The 
  species 
  is 
  on 
  the 
  wing 
  throughout 
  the 
  rains 
  

   and 
  cold 
  weather, 
  the 
  males, 
  as 
  a 
  rule, 
  appearing 
  somewhat 
  later 
  than 
  

   the 
  females. 
  Of 
  the 
  three 
  forms 
  of 
  the 
  latter, 
  type 
  I, 
  which 
  is 
  like 
  

   the 
  male, 
  does 
  not 
  apparently 
  occur 
  in 
  the 
  district 
  ; 
  at 
  any 
  rate 
  I 
  have 
  

   never 
  seen 
  it. 
  Type 
  II, 
  which 
  mimics 
  P. 
  aristolochice, 
  is 
  common 
  and 
  

   the 
  only 
  one 
  generally 
  taken 
  ; 
  while 
  type 
  III, 
  mimicking 
  P. 
  hector, 
  is 
  

   very 
  rare, 
  but 
  as 
  I 
  have 
  seen 
  it 
  on 
  two 
  occasions, 
  apparently 
  does 
  occur. 
  

   Its 
  appearance 
  at 
  all 
  is 
  rather 
  surprising 
  as 
  its 
  model 
  is 
  never, 
  as 
  far 
  as 
  

   I 
  know, 
  found 
  in 
  Upper 
  India."

   I

   of

  seems 
  to 
  occur 
  only 
  in 
  the

  the 
  

   author 
  almost 
  certainly 
  means

   sakontala 
  being 
  similar 
  to
