LEPIDOPTERA.

Fabricius gives the habitat of this species " in Indiis," with the observation, that 

 it is of the figure of the South American Papilio Tphicla. (Drury, 1. pi. 14, f. 3, 4.) 

 Hence I think it most probable that the term must be considered to signify the West 

 Indies, or South America, and that the species is incorrectly introduced into the 

 present work.
