Sierra Leone. (Presented by the Bev. D. F. Morgan) B.M. 



The Fabrician type might, according to his description, have been 

 either a local form of P. Eurypylus or a broken specimen of Cramer's 

 species ; Mr. Doubleday, however, in his MS. notes, writes : " This 

 is Ayapenor (teste Westwood in ' Arcana ')." In Jones's unpublished 

 1 Icones,' the P. Antlieus of Cramer is figured, but without tails. 

 See also Donovan's drawings in Bibl. Hope, Oxford.

Nepal. (Presented by Major-General Hardwicke) B.M. 



This species, according to Capt. Lang *, has a bold and rapid 

 flight, and is not easily captured ; it affects moist ground, and was 

 taken by Capt. Lang at an altitude of 5000 to 7000 feet. 



There are two pretty good specimens of P. Sarpedon in the Bank- 

 sian Collection in the British Museum. Fabricius corrected his 

 original description in the ' Species Insectorum,' but quoted Cramer's 

 figure, which represents the Indo-Aus-tralian form, P. Choredon of 

 Felder.
