[large black spot: .these spots, joining together, 
compose a broad irregular bar extending to 
the abdominal part, where there are two sepa- 
rate and distin6l s|30ts on each wing. The 
tails are black ; and, on the fan-edge of each, 
there are six crescent-shaped spots of orange 
brown; 
The expansion of the wings is six inches 
and a half. 
The Butterfly thus described and figured, is 
a female. The male, which is smaller, is 
given by Edwards ; who, Mr. Harris remarks, 
I seems to produce it as a distindl species, though 
! their markings are similar, and both were 
brought from China. 
The fa61: seems to be, that very little is ia 
general known respe6ling Butterflies, and many 
other objects, from distant regions, unless 
■where skilful naturalists have not only visited 
but resided. The beauties, and the curiosities 
of nature, are often brought over to England, 
; as well as other parts of Europe, by persons 
'very little accjuainted with the necessary en- 
! cpiries
