Family PAPILIONID^E 
Ovum —Dome-shaped, flattened at the base. 
Larva —Cylindrical, with a forked retractile tentacle (which 
emits a strong odour) just behind the head. 
Pupa —Attached by the tail and a girdle round the middle, 
secured in an upright position; often with a long pro¬ 
jection at the head. 
Imago —Usually of large size; wings strong and often with a 
single tail, lobate or straight. Six perfect legs in both 
sexes, the tibiae furnished with a leaf-like projection; the 
claws usually simple. 
I have refrained from using the name JEquitidce for this 
family, as it seems undesirable to change the well-known generic 
name of Papilio , though by following Dr. Scudder, the type of 
that genus, according to the law of priority, would be Vanessa 
antiop a.

It is more usual to consider our “ Birds-wing ” species as 
belonging to this genus rather than Ornithcptera.
