male, distinguish this at a glance from all its allies. It has a comparatively restricted 
range, and is very constant in both sexes. The plate sent me by Dr. Felder is not num. 
bered.

Jemark.—l believe that two, if not three, well-marked forms or species have been 
mixed up under the name of P. Ambrax, as I have endeavoured to show by the refer- 
ences. My specimens of the two sexes of each show a uniformity of character in each 
locality. 
68. PAPILIO AMBRACTA, Wallace. 
P. Ambraz, Bd.; De Haan, Verh. Nat. Gesch. t. 7. f. 1 (3). 
Male. Differs from P. Ambrax, Bd., by the ashy-white patch at the apex of the ante- ° 
rior wings. ' | 
Female. Has a large, roundish, white patch on the anterior wings, extending from the 
discoidal cell to the hinder angle. The red lunules on the hind wings are smaller. Same 
size as P. Ambra.

69. PAPILIO EPIRUS, n. s; 
Male. Above:—anterior wings as in P. Ambrax; posterior wings more elongate, the 
white band much narrower, notched behind at the nervures, with the portions between | 
regularly rounded; the part which crosses the cell is cut by black nervures, and there is 
an oblique red mark at the anal angle. 
Beneath :—with a submarginal of seven lunules on the hinder wings, the one above the 
‚anal angle very large; whereas the last two species have one small lunule only beneath, 
at the analangle. . 
Female. Is probably that figured in * Voy. au Pôle Sud,’ Lép. t. 1, f. 5, which resem- 
bles most the female of P. Ambracia, but differs in the form of the white and red patches. 
«It is said to be from * the coasts of New Guinea” ; but as the expedition touched at the 
‘Aru Islands, it is very probable that there is an error of locality, as I have ascertained 
to be very often the case in the indications furnished by these and other * Voyages.’

"have been placed next to P. Severus.
