ENTOMOLOGY. 



a blue, edged with black, and having at each end or corner 

 of the wing, a large spot of an amber colour, with small 

 streaks of white circularly placed. The appearance of the 

 under wing is divided gradually, the tints being of a plea- 

 sing grey softening into a dark brown, and afterwards into 

 a black. 



The specimen from which the present drawing was taken 

 Was lately imported from the Brazils, by Mr. Hullett, 

 in whose collection it now remains, and may be considered 

 as one of the grandest Papilio's already discovered, as 

 there is a splendor and simplicity in the forms and colours, 

 which cannot fail to arrest the attention of the connoisseur. 

 We may also add that the back of the wings and body arc 

 partly covered with a silky flowing hair, that is difficult to 

 represent, but which chiefly invests the central part of the 

 Wings. 



We have before observed that other species exist, 

 which much resemble the present, but as they are brought 

 from the East Indies, it is impossible that they can be the 

 same as that herewith described, independently of the 

 difference of form and colour.
