ADDENDA AND NOTES TO THE DESCEIPTIONS OF NON-EUEOPEAN 
SPECIES OF THE PALA5AECTIC FAUNA. 
Genus PAPILIO. 
P. Podalirius var. Latteri, Austat. Petit, iiouv. Mem. ii. p. 293. 
— Expands from 2-80 to 3*30 in. Differs from the variety Feistha- 
melii in being larger, and having the ground colour of the wings 
whiter ; the tails of the hind wings are also longer in proportion 
than those of Podalirius. The abdomen is white, as in var. 
Zancleus. Habitat, Algeria. 
Genus HYPERMNESTEA. 
Note. — H. Helios ^M. Maxima, Staud. — A variety diff’ering from 
the type in the greater expanse of the wings and in the intensity of 
the markings. H. Helios is, according to Erschoff, very common 
in the Deserts of Turkestan, especially in the neighbourhood of 
the Sea of Aral. He says the ground colour of the wing varies 
from light to dark, and that the red and black markings vary very 
much in size and beauty. 
Genus PAENASSIUS. 
Note. — P. Corijhas, F. deW. 242. — The original species described 
by Fischer de Waldheim as coming from Ivamtchatka is not the same 
as that figured by Erschoff, Lep. Turkestan, p. 2, j)l. i. figs. 1, 2 ; 
the latter species has been named P. Discohalus by Staudinger, and 
the former described in Staudinger’s Catalogue as P. Delius ? var. 
Coryhas is now considered a small variety of P. Discohalus, and 
named var. Minor. P. Discohalus much resembles P. Coryhas, 
described at p. 23 of the present work, but is larger, lighter in 
colour, and has the red spots round and clear. 
Genus PIERIS. 
P. Mesentina, Oram. Pap. Exot. 370 ; Godt. Ency. Meth. 
p. 130 ; Boisd. Sp. Gen. p. 501. — Expands from 2 to 2*20 in. 
Wings white. Fore wings rather pointed ; in the male with a 
black discoidal lunule ; half-way between this and the apex a broad 
black wavy line reaching to about the centre of the hind margin ;
