beyond, apex and outer margin very broadly black, the inner edge of the black 

 border rather deeply sinuate. On the posterior-wings the black border narrows 

 towards the anal angle, where it is irrorated internally with grey. 



Underside : anterior-wings white, greenish-yellow at the base, irrorated with 

 grey ; costal area, apex, and outer margin as on the upper-side, but towards the 

 apex are three distinct, bright yellow, conical spots, under which are three more or 

 less defined smaller white spots. Posterior- wings : inner three-fourths bright canary- 

 yellow, outer fourth brownish-black, the inner edge of which is irregular, and in 

 which are two irregular ill-defined yellow spots, the first below the second sub-costal 

 nervule, the other below the upper median nervule. 



!j> . Upper-side resembles the male, but the wings are more stramineous and 

 rounder. 



Under-side : anterior-wings more grey, and spots paler. Posterior-wings : the 

 basal three-fourths is pale orange-yellow, traversed by white veins. Exp., 2£ in. 



Sab. : Rubiana and Guadalcanal*. 



Near latilimbata, Butl., discolor, Mathew, and quadricolor, Godm. 

 and Salv. 



Elodina uhbbatica 



$ . Upper-side, white. Anterior- wings with the base, basal part of the cell, 

 and costal margin, as far as the middle n broadly dark grey, thence along the costa 

 narrowly grey, until it joins a broad apical and outer marginal dark grey band, which 

 on its inner edge at the upper median nervule is slightly sinuate, the band tapers 

 towards the posterior angle. 



Under-side, white, slightly tinged at the base of both wings and at the apex of 

 anterior- wings with greenish-yellow ; the dark apical area on the upper-side of an- 

 terior-wings indistinctly visible. 



? . Upper-side, resembles the male, but is greyer. 



Under-side, with the base, costal and outer margins, and apex of anterior-wings, 

 and the whole of the posterior-wings, stramineous. Exp., If in. 



Sab. : Ulawa Island. 



Nearest to bouruensis, Wall., and Sypatia, Feld., but wings more 

 elongated, especially in the female ; they also differ on the under-side. 



Papilio Peospeeo. 



$ . Upper-side : both wings black. Anterior-wings with an oblique, straight 

 (not curved), subapical row of four milky-white spots, the first below the third 

 sub-costal nervule quadrangular, the second smaller, triangular, the third and fourth 

 larger and more elongated, indented outwardly, the fourth sharply 60 ; a short 

 narrow white line on the first subcostal nervule, nearer the base than the first spot ; 

 a large milky-white patch indented outwardly towards the posterior angle between 

 the lowest median nervule and the submedian nervure. Posterior-wings with a 

 broad milky-white band, as in Hecatceus, but more deeply and sharply serrated 

 outwardly than in that species. 



Under-side : anterior-wings as above, but without the spot between the lowest 

 median nervule and the sub-median nervure. Posterior-wings with three sub- 

 marginal, quadrate, ferruginous spots between the discoidal and median nervules, 

 and an indication of another near the apex ; a larger and brighter ferruginous 

 spot above the anal angle, inside which, rather nearer the middle, between the 

 discoidal and median nervules, are three putches of bluish-white scales. 



Exp., 5£ in.
