Plate VII.
Represents six remarkable species of Papilio not before figured. N.B. Except in fig. 1, the right side shows the upper surface, and the left side the under surface of the same insect.
Fig. 1. Papilio Thule, male. The upper surfaces of two varieties or local forms of this species are figured. The right side represents the form found in New Guinea, the left side that obtained in Waigiou. It resembles Danais sobrina, Bd., which inhabits the same countries, and varies in a somewhat similar manner (see pages 20 and 63).
Fig. 3. Papilio Ænigma, male, from Sumatra (see page 60). This species was named as above, from its puzzling resemblance to Papilio Paradoxa, which is found in the same districts. Both species appear to mimic Euplœa Midamus (see page 20).
Fig. 2. Papilio Miletus, male, from Celebes (see page 65). This species and the next exhibit in a striking manner the abruptly curved wing peculiar to Celebes. Figs. 5 and 6 represent species almost equally remarkable in this respect.
Fig. 4. Papilio Telephus, male, from Celebes (see page 67).
Fig. 5. Papilio Androcles, male, from Celebes (see page 63).
Fig. 6. Papilio Gigon, female, from Celebes (see page 59).
