Papilio Antiochus is very rare in European cabinets of infects. The fpecimen figured by Drury came 
from the Brazils, and Cramer’s from Surinam. Fabricius defcribes it as a native of China. ‘The infe& 
figured in the colleétion of drawings of Mr, Jones of Chelfea, was a native of China, as well as the fpeci- 
men in our colle€tion.
