56 MR. A. R. WALLACE ON THE PAPILIONIDÆ 
closely followed by two males of the ordinary form ; they were watched for some time, | 
the males hovering over the females in the manner usual before pairing ; and the three 
were then captured at one stroke of the net. This occurred three years after the capture | 
of the specimen figured by Mr. Hewitson, and at once convinced me that these puzzling 
specimens were an additional form of female to a well-known male. The fact that the 
only females known of an allied species (P. Tydeus) are intermediate between these forms — 
eonfirms this determination.

72. PAPILIO PANDION, n. s. 
Male. Closely resembles P. Ormenus, but presents the following differences :— 
Upper side:—the band of spots across the fore wings is faintly marked, or more « 
frequently quite absent; the grey lines bordering the nervures at the apex are more die - 
tinct; on the hind wings, the first three indentations of the whitish patch are followed 1 
by faint powdered lunules of the same colour. 
Under side :—the apex of the fore wings is strongly marked with grey lines between — 
the nervures, but has generally no spots; on the hind wings there is a curved submargi- 
nal band of lunules across the wing, viz., at the anal angle a large irregular red lunulate 
spot with a blue and a grey mark above it—2nd, a larger grey lunule with an angular 
blue mark below it, and a red lunule nearer the margin—3rd, a similar grey lunule and 
— 
blue mark—4th, a larger grey lunule, and a smaller blue mark with a faint red lumule - 
below—5th, a grey lunule and a faint blue dash below—6th, a blue lunule with a faint | 
grey mark above—7th, a blue lunule with a very faint mark above it. These vary some: 
what in different specimens, but the whole series can always be traced. | 
1st form of female. 
Scarcely distinguishable from the typical female of the last species: the blue lunules 
on the under surface form a complete series, almost as in P. Erectheus 9.

2nd form of female. 
Upper surface :—fore wings as in P. Onesimus, Hew.; hind wings yellowish white, a | 
broad black border along the anterior, and a narrow one along the posterior margin, WO | 
yellowish lunules near the outer angle, anal angle pale yellow, then an oblong black spo 
with a bluish mark in its upper part, followed by a second (half-obliterated) black spot. — 
Under surface with the same markings; but there are a series of six blue angulated | 
marks upon a black ground, the two intermediate ones being smaller and less distinct 
Abdomen yellow ; under side black.

Remarks.—This specimen was taken in company with two males, as before mentioned. | 
An insect, described by M. Montrouzier as the female of his P. Godartii (from Woo 
Island), agrees very closely with this, and is no doubt the female of the same species, ora i 
closely allied one which-he puts in his list as P. Ormenus. The fact, therefore, that this | 
peculiar pale form of female Papilio has been found in five islands, from no one of which |
