In the two Kanara papers this butterfly appears as Papilio 

 dissimilis, Linnaeus, or P. panope, Linnaeus, but the Hon. W. Rothschild 

 has recently shewn that P. clytia is the oldest name for it. 



187. Papilio pandiyana, Moore. 



This is the only Papilio in Kanara of which the food-plant lias 

 not been discovered. The allied P. jophon, Gray, of Ceylon, has been 

 bred, but its food-plant has not been recorded. The larva shews that 

 this butterfly comes into the first group of the genus, being very similar 

 to that of P. hector, Linnaeus, and P. aristolochise, Fabricius, and pro- 

 bably feeds on the same plants. 



Family HESPERIID^.

 apetala, Dalz. and Gibs., which is given by Sir J. Hooker as a synonym of Litsxa 

 tomentosa, Herb.
