Papilio Psamathe : alis rotundatis integerrimis albis: anticis apice 



nigris albo maculatis i posticls subtus virescenti- 

 bus ; fasciis duabus obscurioribus ; anteriore 

 incurva. Fabr, Spec. Ins. T, S.p.l, 207. 



A native of America and nearly allied to Papilio Phronima^ 

 represented in plate 153 of the work of Cramer. It differs in having 

 only the tip, and not both the base and tip, black, as in Phromina. 

 Our present species is also distinguished further by having two white 

 spots on the black tip of the anterior wings, in the apex of the 

 anterior wings being destitute of any black spot beneath, and in the 

 anterior band on the lower wings beneath being incurvate. 



This species has not been represented by any author. Fabricius 

 described it from the drawings of the late Mr. Jones, and it is from 

 that matchless series of designs and MSS. that the present figures 

 are copied.
