NEW GENUS OF PAPILIOMDJC. 
family* In the hind-wings the veins ai'e arranged as in Papilio. 
The fore-feet are perfect, the tibise being calcarated at the middle 
on the inside. The two spines at the extremity of the four hind 
tibicC are short; indeed the legs are comparatively shorter than in 
most of the species of Papilio. 
It is scarcely questionable that the two specimens represented 
in the accompanying plates, are not the sexes of one species for 
which the name of T. imperialis should be retained, as being that 
proposed for the male insect (plate 59). I regret that in conse¬ 
quence of Captain Parry (to whom these insects belong, and to 
whose kindness I am indebted for permission to figure them) pos¬ 
sessing but single specimens of each sex, I have been prevented 
from determining the precise structure of the sexual organs, which 
differ from all those figured by M. De Haan. In one sex, how¬ 
ever, they are furnished with a horny piece, broad at the base, 
received into a kind of anal pouch, (see outline figures at foot of 
pi. 59), whilst in the other they are composed externally of two 
flat oval pilose lobes, (see outline figures in pi. 60.)

This supposed species, if indeed it be not the female of the pre¬ 
ceding, has been named by Mr. Hope, in honour of the lady of 
Captain Parry. Dr. Horsfield has shown me a specimen of it in the 
collection of the East India Company, and Mr. A. White informs 
me that there are specimens of it in a collection at Edinburgh. 
The plant represented in pi. 59 is the Nepalese Epidendnmi 
praecox, and that in pi. 60 is Orchis gigantea, from the same 
country, both first described in Smith’s Exotic Botany.
