vure and the first branch of the median ; the base of the an- 

 terior wing is blacker. Beneath blacker ; instead of a large 

 black spot near the middle of the costa of the posterior wings, 

 a black streak unites with the black of the outer margin ; wide 

 black marks extend over the vicinity of the median nervure 

 and its branches. Antennae wanting.

6 . Exp. 3*25. Near P. JosepMna, Gdt. (Hubn. Ex. Schm. ii. 

 t. 126), but differs in the contour of the posterior wings. 

 These wings in P. Josephina are elongated, the outer margin 

 being much rounded, the anal angle only slightly project- 

 ing; the third branch of the median nervure is fully '15 

 longer than in P. Josepha, which has the outer margin more 

 straightened, the anal angle prominent, and the wing wider 

 and more triangular. The geographical distribution of the 

 two races is as follows : — 



P. JosepMna^ Antilles (Haiti, and Cuba). 



P. Josepha, Guatemala (valley of the Polochic) and Mexico 

 (Oaxaca), Nicaragua.

We have several specimens of both sexes of both species, 

 and find the above differences constant. Hiibner's figure seems 

 to have been undoubtedly taken from an Antillean specimen. 



23. PapiUo FenocMoms. 



6 . Exp. 3*55. Like P. Epidaus^ Bdv., anterior wings more 

 transparent ; whole of the outer half of the posterior wings, 

 except a submarginal row of white lunules and two red spots, 

 black. The central longitudinal band is continued into this 

 black spot instead of stopping abruptly at the end of the cell. 

 Beneath, the central red band is edged on both sides by black 

 instead of only on the inside ; the whole of the outer portion 

 of the posterior wings, as on the upperside, is sooty black, 

 with a submarginal single row of white lunulate spots.

cJ. Exp. 3*95. Wings rounded, entire, the costa much 

 arched, the outer margin of the posterior wings slightly sinu- 

 ated, but without projecting dentation : black ; the upper 

 margin of the cell of the anterior wings and the portion with- 

 out the cell of the posterior wings thinly sprinkled with yellow 

 scales ; a curved band of brick -red colour occupies the greater
