other in which they are more or less red in color. The latter 

 form is common in Newfoundland, and is shown in the Plate.

(12) Papilio indra Reakirt, Plate CXXV, cT (The Moun- 

 tain Swallow-tail). 



The resemblance to P. polyxenes is marked, but it will be 

 observed that the tails have undergone even greater reduction 

 in length than in P. brevicauda, and that the band of yellow 

 spots traversing the wings has been reduced in width. Ex- 

 panse 2.50-2.75 inches. 



Found on the high mountains of Colorado, Nevada, and 

 California. 



(13) Papilio zelicaon Boisduval, Plate CXXVI, cf (The 

 Western Swallow-tail). 



Jn many respects like P. polyxenes, but having the median 

 bands of yellow greatly widened, until on the hind wing the 

 band covers almost the entire basal half of the wing. Ex- 

 panse 2.75-3.25 inches. 



Ranges from Vancouver Island to Arizona and eastward as 

 far as Colorado.
