1. Ornithoptera brookeana = Rajah Brooke's birdwing (Trogonoptera brookiana)
Rajah Brooke's birdwing (Trogonoptera brookiana) is a birdwing butterfly from the rainforests of the Thai-Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Natuna, Sumatra, and various small islands west of Sumatra (Banyak, Simeulue, Batu and Mentawai). The butterfly was named by the naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace in 1855, after James Brooke, the Rajah of Sarawak.
2. Papilio clytia = common mime (Papilio clytia)
Papilio clytia, the common mime, is a swallowtail butterfly found in south and south-east Asia. The butterfly belongs to the Chilasa subgenus, the black-bodied swallowtails. It serves as an excellent example of a Batesian mimic among the Indian butterflies.
3. Papilio demolion = banded swallowtail (Papilio demolion)
Papilio demolion, the banded swallowtail, is a species of swallowtail butterfly found in Asia.
4. Papilio delessertii = Malayan zebra (Graphium delessertii)
Graphium delessertii, the Malayan zebra, is a butterfly of the family Papilionidae (swallowtails). It is found in Southeast Asia. The rare female resembles Ideopsis gaura. Despite the rarity of females Graphium delessertii is a common species, although threatened by deforestation in Java.
5. Papilio caunus var aegialus = great blue mime (Papilio paradoxa)
Papilio (Chilasa) paradoxa, the great blue mime, is a swallowtail butterfly found in India and parts of South-East Asia. The butterfly belongs to the mime subgenus, Chilasa, of the genus Papilio (black-bodied swallowtails). It is an excellent mimic of different species of Euploea (sub-family Danainae).
6. Papilio erithonius var malayanus = lime swallowtail (Papilio demoleus malayanus)
Papilio demoleus is a common and widespread swallowtail butterfly. The butterfly is also known as the common lime butterfly, lemon butterfly, lime swallowtail, small citrus butterfly, chequered swallowtail, dingy swallowtail and citrus swallowtail. These common names refer to their host plants, which are usually citrus species such as the cultivated lime. Unlike most swallowtail butterflies, it does not have a prominent tail.
7. Papilio phoenix = great Mormon (Papilio memnon)
Papilio memnon, the great Mormon, is a large butterfly native to southern Asia that belongs to the swallowtail family. It is widely distributed and has thirteen subspecies. The female is polymorphic and with mimetic forms. |
