111. Papilio Miletus, n. s. Tab. VII. fig. 2 (♂).
Wings larger and more falcate than in P. Sarpedon, costal margin abruptly curved near the base of the wing.
Above, black; macular band rich blue, very narrow, the spots on the upper wings all more or less rounded and separated by thick black bands; the marginal lunules large and angularly bent.
Beneath, the upper wings have a row of four pearly-white lunules from the outer angle; and there is one of the same colour at the outer angle of the lower wings, which have also an additional red spot on the margin of the cell, below the first branch of the subcostal nervure. Expanse of wings 4¾ inches.
Hab. Macassar and Menado (Celebes) (Wall.).
Remarks.—I have separated this species from all the other forms of P. Sarpedon, because, while they differ in markings and colour only, this differs greatly in form as well as very strikingly in size, colour, and markings. I cannot conceive, therefore, why such a combination of distinctive peculiarities should not entitle it to specific rank.
112. Papilio Wallacei, Hewitson.
P. Wallacei, Hew. Ex. Butt., “Papilio,” iii. f. 7.
Hab. Aru Islands, Batchian (Wall.).
Remark.—This isolated species is very rare: I obtained a single male specimen in each of the above localities in the virgin forest.
