Papilio. LEJPIDOPTERA. i 35 



Thofe of the Danai Candidi (at leaft of fuch 

 as we are acquainted with) are fufpended ho- 

 rizontally^ being fixed by the tail as thofe of 

 the other families, but are fupported in an 

 horizontal pofition by means of a thread pair- 

 ed round the middle of their body and at- 

 tached obliquely to the part above the head. 



The caterpillars of many of them are ex- 

 ceedingly common, and fufficiently known ; 

 thofe of many Equite$ have two horns fitu- 

 ate in their necks, near the head, which they 

 can fhoot out and draw in at pleafure. It is 

 yet unknown, whether or no the others of 

 that lection have thefe horns, but it is to be 

 hoped that fome curious Entomologift will make 

 this point an object of his refearches : the larvae ... 

 of the Pap. Apollo refembles thofe of the Equites 

 in that refpect.
