Show 1895.] PROM BRITISH EAST AFRICA. 737 89. PAPILIO MACKINNONI. Papilio mackinnoni, E. M . Sharpe, P. Z. S. 1891, p. 187, pi. xvi. fig. 1. Between Kivata and Wimi, Euwenzori, 7000-8000 feet, May or June. 90. PAPILIO BROMIUS. Papilio bromius, Doubleday, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. xvi. p. 176 (1845). Arar. Papilio brontes, Godman, P. Z. S. 1885, p. 540. Salt Lake to Wawamba. The single example received is in fairly good condition and is especially interesting. On the upper surface it agrees with P. bromius excepting in its bluer bands ; on the under surface, however, it agrees in almost every respect with the type of P. brontes; this being the case, it is no longer possible to consider the latter a distinct species. 91. PAPILIO ERINUS. Papilio erinus, Gray, Cat. Lep. Ins. B. M. i. p. 35 (1865). 5 , Salt Lake to Wawamba. One damaged specimen was obtained. 92. PAPILIO JACKSONI. Papilio jacksoni, E. M . Sharpe, P. Z. S. 1891, p. 188, pi. xvii. figs. 1, 2. d. Salt Lake to Wawamba; 2 > Euwenzori, 9000 feet. P. preussius, Karsch, appears to me to be based solely upon the wider white band across the primaries of the male, and is likely to prove a mere variety ; the female of P. echerioides (see Oberthiir, Etudes, xiii. pi. 2. fig. 6, 1890) nearly resembles the female of P. jacksoni, but differs somewhat in the position of the submarginal spots. 93. SARANGESA DJJELJSLJE. Pterggospidea djeelcelee, Wallengren, Kongl. Svensk. Vet.-Acad. Handl. 1857 ; Lep. Ehop. Caffr. p. 54. Salt Lake to Wawamba. 94. PYRGUS DROMUS.
