PAPILIO. Ill 



Larva. " Widest at the 5th segment, from which it tapers 

 gradually to the 13th segment. The ridge over the head is 

 furnished with two tubercles, black in front, white posteriorly. 

 The 5th segment has a yellow bar which projects on each side 

 beyond the body and has the appearances of a yoke. The points 

 of the yoke are black. Colour green. The 13th segment is of a 

 pale transparent blue-green. A pale yellow subdorsal line and an 

 almost white spiracular line are the only markings. Head of a 

 greenish-yellow. Legs, claspers and abdomen of the same colour 

 as the 13th segment. The 13th segment ends in two sharp points 

 which join at the end, so that the division between them is visible 

 only on a close examination." (Eobson.)
