Papttio Doubleclayi, var. Sambilanc/a, Doherty, Journ. As. Soc. Bengal, 1886, p. 263. 
Papiho Doubleclayi , subsp. Sambilanga , Rothschild, Nov. Zool. ii. p. 254 (1895). 
Imago. —“ Intermediate between Doubledayi and Bhodifer . The tail is black in 
Doubleclayi. Of the discal semicircle of whitish spots on the hiudwing, that on the 
abdominal margin is very short, those between the middle median and the radial are 
generally absent above and quite rudimentary below. The anal orange spot is large, 
the marginal one at the end of the middle median is joined with the sub marginal one 
between the two upper medians, both above and below, very much as in Bhodifer. 
The female is similar, but the wings are wider and the tails much shorter and 
broader.” 
Habitat. —Great Nicobar Island. 
Distribution. —Mr. Doherty states that it is “ rather common on Great Nicobar 
Island ” (lx,). We have not seen specimens of this species.

the portion in the lower median interspace being small and narrow, that in the 
middle median minute or absent, very rarely one is also present in the upper median 
interspace ; beyond are three submarginal whitish lnnules, the upper one being much
