dots, tlie first rounded, the second and third elongate ; along the outer 
margin a series of nine rounded dots ; costa powdered with whitish : pos- 
terior wings greenish-white, with the nervures and outer margin fuscous, 
the latter with a row of pale markings, of which those near the anal angle 
are lunulate : anal angle with a square orange spot : abdominal margin 
fringed with brownish hairs. Below : — ^All the wings marked as above, 
but the fuscous colour replaced by brown, with lighter reflections ; the in- 
dentations of the posterior wings distinctly margined with white. 
Head black above, with two white spots between the eyes : thorax black, 
with the side whitish : abdomen black, with a broad black line along the 
back. (Exp. alar. 3 unc. 6 lin.) 
Inhabits Silhet. Museo H. Doubleday. 
Very near P. Laodocus, De Haan, but quite distinct. 
From an examination of Jones’s Drawings I have convinced myself that 
P. Asti/anax, Fab., Anth(sus, F., and Orestes^ F., are identical respectively 
with P. Mutius,¥ Agapenor, F., and Nomius, Esp.,the distinction consist- 
ing solely in the absence of tails, which probably had been broken off in the 
specimens described by Fabricius ; that P. IdcBus, Fab. is merely a variety 
of P. Evander, Godt., having a dirty white patch at the extremity of the 
discoidal cell in lieu of the ashy band of the typical specimens ; and that 
P. Hippocoo7i, Fab., is the same as P. Westermanni, Bois. P. Ajax, Fab., 
appears to be tlie P. Marcellus of Boisduval. Of P. Thersander^ Fab., 
there is a beautiful specimen in the British Museum, which was presented 
by the Eev. D. F. Morgan : it is nearly allied to P. Menestheus, Fab. 
Leptalis Atthis. Anterior wings falcate ; posterior elongate, slightly 
angular. Above : — Anterior wings black ; the inner margin broadly and 
irregularly white or pale yellow ; a row of three small dots near the apex, 
commencing on the costa and directed towards the outer margin ; a large 
blotch on the costa extending beyond the discoidal cell, deeply sinuated 
interiorly, and followed by a round dot, all white or pale yellow : posterior 
wings whitish or pale yellow, bordered externally with fuscous, the fuscous 
colour not reaching the anal angle ; the margin itself yellow. Below : — 
Anterior wings nearly as above ; the apex and outer margin pearly white, 
tinged on the extreme margin with ferruginous ; costa pearly at the origin 
of the pale blotch .* posterior wings pearly white, sprinkled with fuscous 
clouds, forming three or more indistinct transverse bands : margin slightly 
marked with brown ; cilia ochraceous. 
Thorax and abdomen above, fuscous ; below, whitish or pale yellow.

Inhabits Mexico. Museo H. Doubleday. 
Allied to Papilio Crisia^ Drury {Leptalis Crisia, Bois.), but the anterior 
wings are much more pointed, and there is considerable difference in the 
markings. 
Leptalis Cydno. Above : — All the wings cretaceous white, slightly 
tinged with greenish : the apex of the anterior wings fuscous, which colour 
extends narrowly along the outer margin beyond the middle : costa itself 
black : posterior wings and anal angle of superior tinged with yellowish 
along the cilia. Below : — Anterior wings cretaceous, with the costa and 
outer margin, except towards the anal angle, broadly pale ochraceous : 
posterior wings pale ochraceous, palest along the abdominal margin, with 
a minute fuscescent spot at the extremity of the discoidal cellule, fonned 
by a few scattered fuscous scales.
