there is a red spot. There are no hind marginal or basal red spots

— Greatly resembles P. Mnemosyne, but all the black discoidal 
spots are wanting, and the ventral surface of the abdomen is not

NOETH AMEEICAN SPECIES ALLIED TO THOSE OF EUEOPE 
AND NOETHEEN ASIA. 
Papilio Turniis, Linn., is allied to P. Alexanor, but very much 
larger. It is found in Canada and the Western States. 
Papilio Ajax, Linn., is very close to P. Podalirius. It is 
found in the Valley of the Mississippi from Pennsylvania to Texas. 
It is figured, with its varieties, in Edwards’s ‘ Butterflies of North 
America.’ 
There are several varieties of P. Machaoii found in North 
America which have received distinct names ; of these P. Zolicaon, 
Boisd., occurs in California, and P. Aliasha, Scudd., in Aliaska. 
Parnassius Smintheus, Houbl., occurs in the Eocky Mountains, 
and does not seem to differ from the Siberian variety of P. Delius 
called Intermedius. 
Parnassius Clodius, Men., is a Californian species, and is 
closely allied to P. Nordmanni and P. Clarius. It was long con- 
founded with the latter, but is quite distinct, differing in the 
shape of the wings, and in having red basal spots beneath. 
Parnassius Eversmanni, Men., described above, inhabits Aliaska, 
and does not differ from the North Asiatic form.
