We have, therefore, fourteen species or marked varieties of Papilio, which so closely resemble species of
other groups in their respective localities, that it is not
possible to impute the resemblance to accident. The
first two in the list (Papilio paradoxa and P. Caunus)
are so exactly like Euplcea Midamus and E. Rhadamanthus on the wing, that although they fly very slowly, I
was quite unable to distinguish them. The first is a
very interesting case, because the male and female differ
considerably, and each mimics the corresponding sex
of the Euplcea. A new species of Papilio which I
discovered in New Guinea resembles Danais sobrina,
