c? . Differs from P. elephenor J as follows : Wings pro- 

 portionately slightly broader ; termen of hind wing more deeply 

 scalloped, more or less produced into broad teeth at the apices of 

 the veins. Upperside (in the solitary specimen I have been able 

 to examine) similar to the colouring in elephenor. Fore wing : 

 anterior half velvety black without any irroration of green scales. 

 Hind wing : the tornal ocellus as in elephenor but larger, a sub- 

 terminal series of more or less purple-scaled lunules in interspaces 

 1 to 7. Underside as in elephenor, but on the hind wing the 

 tornal red patch more restricted, with a single large black ad- 

 marginal spot, the subterminal series of double red lunules more 

 irregularly formed. Antenna?, head, thorax and abdomen as in 

 elephenor. 



Exp. S 120 mm. (4-75").

<$ $ . Fore wing broadly triangular ; costa widely arched ; apex 

 produced but not acute, bluntly rounded ; termen slightly oblique, 

 tornus rounded ; dorsum sinuous ; cell slightly more than half 

 length of wing. Male with well-marked woolly scent-streaks on 

 outer portions of veins 1 to 4, or on some of them (always present 

 on vein 1); these streaks not extended to the termen. Hind wing 

 broad : costa arched ; termen scalloped, produced at apex of vein 4 

 into a broad spatulate tail ; tornal angle distinct ; dorsum straight ; 

 abdominal fold moderate ; cell comparatively short and narrow ; 

 subcostal vein and upper discocellular subequal. Antenna? not 

 half length of fore wing, club gradual. Sexes alike, with con- 

 spicuous green and blue coloration on the upperside ; an upper 

 discal patch but no continuous broad green or blue band across 

 hind wing.
