There were several examples of this species in Mr. Forbes's collection, 

 clearly showing that the differences of coloration are constant. 



15. Papilio inopinatcs, Butler, loc. sup. cit. 



Allied to P. adrastiis of Felder, from Cerara and N. Guinea ; but the 

 male with a broad oblique subapical white belt, which does not quite 

 reach the outer margin and is cut by the black nervures ; the fascia on 

 the secondaries narrower, formed more nearly as in the Australian 

 P. cegeiis, with zigzag outer edge, but of more uniform width throughout 

 than in that species, and of a sordid cream-colour ; a scarlet spot near 

 the anal angle, well separated from the central fascia. The female differs 

 in the whiter and oblique belt across the primaries, the inner edge of 

 which is not so deeply zigzag, and therefore is rot anpulated as in the 

 allied species, and the outer half towards ape-^t suffused with grey so as 

 greatly to reduce its width ; secondaries with no trace of the central 

 white patch, the submarginal scarlet spot large, oblong, and notched in 

 front. Expanse of wings, $ 14i mm., $ 153 mm. 



$ var. Wings shorter ; the inner edge of the white band of primaries 

 impinged upon by the discoidal cell, which also encloses a spot of the 

 same colour as the band; tlie band of the secondaries bioader, cutting 

 across the end of the cell. Expanse of wings 132 mm.

 The specimen is so much rubbed that it is impossible to be sure that 

 it is the same as the Australian species.
