Papilio Tulliolus: Jon.flg.pkt. 3 tab, ^T.Jig. 1. 



An insect nearly allied to Papilio Midamus in size and general 

 aspect ; it appears also to be a scarce species and very little known. 

 This we must presume from the insect being described only by Fa- 

 briciusj while Papilio Midamus is to be found in the works of many 

 authors, from the Stockholm Transactions for 1748, to which Linnaeus 

 in Mus. Ulr. refers, to the later publications of Sulzer, Klemann, 

 and Cramer, and other works subordinate to those. 



Papilio Tulliolus occurred to Fabricius in the cabinet of Mr. 

 Jones, and its figure among the drawings of that gentleman ; to 

 both these Fabricius has referred for the species. His reference to 

 thosedrawings as they stand in his EntomoIogiaSystematicay " Tom. 3. 

 p. 69." in which we observe a trifling error, for it is at pict. 67. fig. 1. 

 of that volume, and not at pict 69. that the figure of this insect 

 occurs. This error is probably attributable to the press, but there is 

 another in which Fabricius himself must err, for he states Papilio 

 Tulliolus to be a native of India, upon the authority of the cabinet 

 of Mr. Jones ; the insect may be perhaps a native of India (or at 

 least an Asiatic species) as Fabricius mentions, but most assuredly 

 there was no habitat annexed to the specimen in the cabinet referred
